Well done to the police in nabbing the cowardly scum driver so
soon after his collision.

QUOTE: "A teenager has been detained by police in Paris and
arrested on suspicion of ***attempted murder*** (EMPHASIS MINE)
after a cyclist was left seriously injured following a
hit-and-run on Mount Pleasant.

Police launched a manhunt to find a driver who “failed to stop”
after colliding with a cyclist at the busy junction with
Holderness Road on Wednesday afternoon.

Detectives appealed for help from the public after the
43-year-old man was left hurt and police have now confirmed that
a 19-year-old suspect has been apprehended in Paris after
boarding a train to France overnight."

END QUOTE Obviously more to come after he gets in front of the
courts.

He's bound to get something for failing to stop after the crash.
What's the betting that he will get nothing for the standard of
his driving before the crash?


He is wanted for "attempted murder", so there must be someone who
witnessed him DELIBERATELY driving at the cyclist, rather than
merely an accident.


There could be all sorts of reasons behind it. I guess much depends on
whether they were known to each other before the event.
