A man who was mowed down by a car only a feet from his door has finally been identified after a decade of police trying to track down his true identity.
Bryan Woolis died only a stone's throw from his home in Walthamstow, London, after being hit by a Mercedes on January 22, 2015.
However, there were no records of the man, who was also previously Brian Wallace, to be found in the wake of his death.
And even though the driver was handed a suspended sentence following the incident, the case stayed open due to Mr Woolis never being formally identified.
In January 2024, a newspaper launched an appeal from Locate International, a charity dedicated to finding the missing and naming the unidentified, in a bid to track down Brian.
