A woman and child have died after a crash in Leeds.
Police were called shortly after 8.30am to a report that a white Audi car had collided with the wall of the Vertu Jaguar Leeds car dealership on Scott Hall Road.
Two people, a woman and a child, were found injured at the scene, and it's believed they were both pedestrians who were hit by the car prior to it colliding with the wall.
Both were pronounced dead a short time later.
The driver of the Audi was taken to hospital and is being treated for injuries which are described as serious but non-life threatening. He is under arrest.
Detective Inspector Paul Conroy, of the Major Collision Enquiry Team, said:
“This is an absolutely tragic incident, and we are working to support the family of the woman and child involved.
“We have already spoken to a number of witnesses but are keen to speak to anyone else who has witnessed the collision itself or the events leading up to it. We would also ask anyone who was in the area around the time of this collision to check their dashcam footage.”
