A 61-year-old British woman has been left seriously injured after she was knocked down on a pedestrian crossing by an allegedly drunk driver while on holiday with her husband in Turkey.
The horrifying incident got worse when the driver reportedly tried to flee the scene, running over Lisa Di Palma again as she lay knocked down on the road.
Posting on social media, her husband, Keith Di Palma, described how his wife had sustained multiple injuries after the 'horrific' incident on August 6 and was handed over to medical services 'to begin the long road to recovery'.
He described how his wife did not remember 'anything of the accident' - a fact he said was 'a blessing'.
'I’m a broken man, but I will stay strong for my family and my beautiful loving wife,' he wrote.
