A Greenport man left the scene of a motor vehicle accident after his van struck a pedestrian and another vehicle Saturday night in the parking lot of the Greenport 7-Eleven, Southold Town police reported.

Mr. Finne was taken to Eastern Long Island Hospital for treatment of leg and hand injuries, police said.
