An elderly woman was killed after allegedly being run over twice by a 90-year-old man in a Waitrose car park before he drove off to a garden centre.
Patricia Jepson was pushing along a shopping trolley outside the supermarket in Colchester when Colin Kirby-Green reversed into her, Ipswich Crown Court has heard.
Jo Morris, prosecuting, told the court that the driver had run over Ms Jepson before moving forward and reversing into her a second time.
He then allegedly fled the scene in the vehicle without stopping and drove to a garden centre, East Anglian Daily Times reports.
Bystanders rushed to help the victim before she was taken to hospital, where she died on August 28, 2023, nine days after the collision.
