Man arrested after crash in Leicester which killed 14 year old
He's being questioned on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving
A man has been arrested in connection with a fatal crash in Leicester, during which a 14 year old girl was killed.
Police were called to the junction of Braunstone Lane and Mortimer Way on Wednesday (October 26) to reports a car had left the road and hit two teenagers.
A second 14 year old girl was also hurt, but her injuries aren't thought to be life-threatening or life-changing.
The 37 year old, from Leicester, is being questioned on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and driving with an alcohol level above the legal limit.
Detective Sergeant Lisa Wood, from Leicestershire Police, said: “While someone has been arrested in connection with this incident, I’d still like to speak to any witnesses who have not yet come forward.
“From enquiries carried out so far, we know there were a number of people in the area at the time. I’d ask anyone living in Braunstone Lane with CCTV or doorbell cameras at their address to get in touch.
“Likewise, I’m still keen to speak to anyone who saw the Astra prior to the collision occurring and any motorists with dashcams who have not yet spoken to police.
“Any information or footage you have, no matter how insignificant you think it is, could help.”
