The parents of a little girl struck down by a drink and drug driver shared their grief as their daughter's killer was put behind bars. John Owen was speeding and had been using a mobile phone when his car crashed into Sharlotte-Sky Naglis.
The six-year-old schoolgirl had been walking back home from the shops in Norton Green, Stoke-on-Trent, with her dad Kris when Owen mounted the pavement and ploughed into them. Sharlotte died instantly.
As reported by Stoke-on-TrentLive, Owen was not wearing a seatbelt and was thrown from the vehicle, sustaining a brain injury. The 46-year-old appeared at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court to be sentenced after admitting causing death by dangerous driving.
