The account of an eyewitness for our forum contributors who are unmoved by the deaths of the 27 tear old and 18 year old mentioned in this thread. Society is not going to tolerate this. Abu Bakr, a plumber, told how he had just finished work in a house opposite when he saw an unmarked Volvo, with flashing lights, crash into the woman’s blue VW Polo while she was waiting to turn right into Sutcliffe Park Sports Centre.He said: “The police cars were racing down the road towards the petrol station. I’d estimate they were doing between 70mph and 90mph. My van shook. They didn’t brake at all - they were just hoping she managed to turn in time before they hit her.“The police cars were on the wrong side of the road. The woman’s car flipped three times. One of its wheels came off. It was shocking. I’ve never seen anything like that in my life. I was in tears. She was turning from the main road into the leisure centre.“Everyone heard the bang. Her husband came out of the leisure centre with their other child, aged about four, in his arms. He was holding his wife’s hand and saying her name ‘Mariam’. He was saying ‘she’s pregnant, she’s due next week’.“I think the emergency services did a C-section on her in the road. They book the baby out so we thought the baby had survived. The police officers were in plain clothes. One had a polo shirt that said ‘Monte Carlo Country Club’ on it.”
