A woman in her 50s has died after she was allegedly assaulted in the street by a BMW driver who had just flipped his car in a horror crash.
Emergency services were called to Aylestone Road, near Leicester city centre, at around 5.30pm on Tuesday after a white BMW 1 Series overturned.
Moments later, witnesses reported the driver fleeing the wreckage and running down the middle of the road towards Leicester Royal Infirmary – before launching a brutal assault on a female pedestrian.
The victim, a woman in her 50s who has not yet been named, was rushed to Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham with life-threatening injuries, but tragically, police confirmed she died on Thursday afternoon.
The 23-year-old male driver was arrested at the scene.
