Teenager arrested over Queens Drive hit-and-run

A teenage boy has been arrested after handing himself in following a hit and run on Queens Drive.

A 70-year-old woman died as a result of the injuries she received when she was hit by an Orange scrambler bike on Queens Drive which subsequently left the scene.

Today, a teenage boy voluntarily attended a police station in Liverpool in connection with the fatal road traffic collision in Walton.

He has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and failing to stop at the scene of a road traffic collision.

He will be interviewed under caution by detectives this afternoon.

Detectives are continuing to appeal for witnesses to the collision itself or anyone who saw an orange scrambler-type motorbike being ridden in the area before or afterwards to contact them on 0151 777 4065 or 777 5747.
