Cops are scouring the streets for a hit-and-run driver who struck a pedestrian in Midtown, then rammed into a pole that toppled onto a woman who is now fighting for her life, police said.
The accident happened at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday on West 34th Street and Tenth Avenue, where the driver of a red Dodge struck a man, police said.
He then struck a bus-stop pole that fell onto a woman believed to be in her 40s, according to police.
"I heard a loud bang. I went outside and saw a lot of people gathered around. There was one person on the ground unconscious. And there was a girl trying to wake her," said a deli worker, Tenzin Kunsang,22.
Horrified onlookers watched as the woman hit the ground and started bleeding from the head, nose and mouth.
'Ma'am Ma'am, can you hear me?'," an unidentified witness could be heard saying at the scene.

"It was very scary," Kunsang added.
The woman suffered severe head trauma and was bleeding from the nose, head and mouth, authorities said.
Both victims were rushed to Bellevue Hospital, where the man was listed in stable condition, and the woman is in serious condition, cops said.
The driver then fled the scene, and was last seen walking southbound on Tenth Avenue toward 33rd Street cops said.
A witness said he saw the driver get out of the Dodge Durango, put his hands on his head, and then disappeared.
"He looked down at the two people and grabbed his head. He went back to the car, then looked at the people again and then I don't know what happened to him," said a parking lot attendant.
Sources said the man goes by the name "Stanley," and was last seen wearing a grey shirt. He has a muscular build, bald-head, is 5-foot-7 and in his 30s, cops said.
