An inquest has heard the tragic case of a young woman who died after being hit by a car while sitting in the road. Antonia St Louis, 27, suffered 'unsurvivable injuries' in a crash in Ashton-under-Lyne in Greater Manchester on the early morning of November 28 2020, the Manchester Evening News reports.
The inquest at South Manchester Coroners' Court heard St Louis and a friend walked along a road before crossing, and stopping in the middle of the three lanes. CCTV footage showed Antonia sitting on the floor.
She was hit at around 3.40am by a Volkswagen Golf driven by a man. Charges were not brought against him, who stayed on the unlit road to assist police. The court heard St Louis died at the scene.
