Following the incident, a West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “When crews arrived, they found a young woman who had been in collision with a car.




“Sadly, she had suffered very serious injuries.

Hannnah died in hospital as a result of the injuries she sustained when she was hit by the black Ford S-Max car.
