Girl, 8, and woman in critical condition in hospital after London school crash

An eight-year-old girl remains in hospital with life-threatening injuries together with a woman in her 40s following a car crash at a school in Wimbledon on Thursday, it has been revealed. Also among the injured in hospital is a seven-month-old girl whose condition has been assessed as not life-threatening, the Metropolitan Police said.

An eight year old girl was killed in the incident. The news came as police revealed the driver of the Land Rover Defender has been released on bail. A Met statement said: “A second eight-year-old girl was taken to hospital where she remains in a life-threatening condition. Her family have been informed and are also being supported.

“A woman, in her 40s, also remains in hospital in a critical condition. A number of other people – including a seven-month-old girl – were also taken to hospital and their conditions have been assessed as not life-threatening. We understand the school-age children were pupils at the school. The injured adults were parents/carers of the children; not staff members.”
