A woman has died after she was struck by four separate vehicles in a shocking multiple hit and run.

The victim, believed to be in her late 20s or early 30s, was struck by two lorries and two cars – but none of the drivers stopped at the scene.

The woman was first hit by a Heavy Goods Vehicle as she crossed the road at a pedestrian crossing in Tulse Hill, in south London.

Metropolitan Police said the driver failed to stop at the scene and the woman was subsequently hit by a second lorry and two cars, with all of their drivers not stopping.

Paramedics were called to the scene at Norwood Road at 6.48am on Monday.

The victim, who has not been identified, was treated at the scene but pronounced dead at 7.21am.

Acting detective sergeant Alastair Middleton said: “I am appealing for anyone who witnessed the collision and the moments afterwards to contact us.

“I would also urge the drivers of all four vehicles to come forward and speak with my team.”
