A man who was said to have a 'fascination' with 'high powered and fast cars' killed a woman by slamming his Mercedes into her as she crossed the road. Mohammed Chowdhury was sentenced to five years and six months in prison after his manner of driving cost her life.
Ibizugbe Joy Ikponnmwen, 38, was mowed down by the reckless driver on October 25 2021, as a blue Mercedes Benz G63 was seen driving at 'excessive speed' along Alan Turing Way in Manchester at around 9.05pm, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Manchester Crown Court heard that Chowdhury was spotted by witnesses and an off-duty police officer driving recklessly, overtaking cars on the wrong side of the road at speed on a 30mph road and harshly breaking before then accelerating.
