A car swerved into a crowd in Primrose Hill, injuring two and leading to an arrest after the New Year fireworks in London
London: So, there was this wild scene in Primrose Hill during the New Year celebrations. A car suddenly swerved into a crowd, and it left two people hurt. Crazy, right?
People were just enjoying the fireworks when they had to run for their lives. Some footage shows folks panicking as police rushed in. It must have been quite a shock!
The police got the call just after midnight. They found out a car had hit a pedestrian at the busy junction. But get this—the driver took off before hitting another person!
Officers were already in the area for the New Year’s Eve festivities, so they quickly tracked down the car not far from where it all happened. They arrested a 40-year-old guy on some serious charges.
One of the injured was a 21-year-old who only had minor injuries, while the other, a 59-year-old, needed a bit more help but is expected to be okay.
Luckily, the police say this isn’t being treated as a terrorist act. Still, it’s a reminder of how quickly things can turn chaotic, especially during big celebrations.
And just a year ago, there was another tragic incident at the same spot when a teenager was killed. It’s a tough reminder for the community.
