A 14-year-old boy has been sentenced for causing the death of a woman after colliding with her while riding a private e-scooter on the pavement.

The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, hit the 71-year-old pedestrian Linda Davis, known as Lou, in Rainworth, Nottinghamshire on 2 June last year. The boy stayed at the scene and called 999 for Davis, who sustained a severe head injury and died in hospital six days later.
