A dangerous driver left a student for dead lying in the road "as if she was nothing" after a horrific crash.
Freya Griffiths, 21, had her jaw smashed on both sides and suffered an agonising broken right leg after speeding driver, Adel Hussain, ploughed into her on Bagot Street in Wavertree. Sarah Griffin, prosecuting, at Liverpool Crown Court on Tuesday, October 18, told the court that shortly after midnight on November 25 last year, Miss Griffiths and her friend Emily Buckingham were walking along the pavement.
They were making their way to the home of another friend, Ellie Taylor, to catch an Uber into town and as Miss Griffiths was walking diagonally across the road towards the her friend, she heard a car approaching from behind. The car was apparently accelerating and revving loudly.
