The owner of a bar which became the scene of tragedy after a woman was killed in a 'hit-and-run' has reacted in shock as he spoke of the trauma to his staff and customers who witnessed the incident.
Tony Callaghan, who runs the Fifteens pub in Pemberton in Wigan said his team were 'sticking together' after the horror unfolded outside the venue on Ormskirk Road last night (8 April). Witnesses described seeing a Land Rover plough into a group of pedestrians, killing a woman in her 40s.
Mr Callaghan confirmed the woman had been visiting the bar and shared his sympathies to her family following the tragedy. He told the Manchester Evening News he doesn't know her identity, but understands she 'isn't from the area' and had been 'visiting family.'
