Family appeals for witnesses after daily lives of pedestrians aged 68 and 46 'significantly impacted' by collision in Northampton
A family is appealing for witnesses as the daily lives of a mother and son have been “significantly impacted” by a collision in Northampton.
The collision happened on Saturday March 7 between 7pm and 7.45pm in Abington, close to St Gregory’s Church.
A 68-year-old woman – Olha Huzhva – and her 46-year-old son were in collision with a Fiat 500X car as they crossed the road.
According to the victims’ family, Olha sustained serious injuries, including fractures, which required hospital treatment.
The family said: “The incident has had a significant impact on both victims and their daily lives.
"The family is seeking justice and is appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or who may have CCTV, dashcam, or doorbell footage from the area at that time, to come forward.”
Olha’s daughter has contacted the nearby church to ask for CCTV, but to no avail, so she is hoping a passer-by might be able to help.
A Northamptonshire Police spokeswoman added: "The driver of a white FIAT 500X car turning from Park Avenue North into Birchfield Road East, Northampton, was in collision with two pedestrians crossing the road.
“As a result of the collision a female pedestrian in her 60s sustained serious injuries and a male pedestrian in his 40s sustained slight injuries.”
Anyone has information which could assist the investigation, are asked to call Northamptonshire Police on 101, quoting: reference number 26000134504.
