A woman in her 60s was left fighting for her life after being struck by a car in a suspected drink-driving incident in Nottingham. Emergency services rushed to Alfreton Road following the collision, which occurred at around 8.30pm on Monday, May 11.
The pedestrian sustained multiple fractures, including a fractured pelvis, and was taken to hospital where she remains in intensive care. A 42-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, failing to stop after a road accident, and drink-driving.
Police Appeal for Witnesses
Detectives from Nottinghamshire Police have been investigating the incident and have already spoken with several witnesses. However, they are now appealing for any additional witnesses to come forward. Officers have been reviewing CCTV footage from the area as part of their inquiries.
Detective Sergeant Charlotte Henson, of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: "We have been working hard over the past week to understand exactly what happened. To this end, we have spoken with multiple witnesses and analysed a considerable amount of CCTV footage.
"However, we believe there are still people who witnessed the incident who have yet to come forward – perhaps because they think the information they have is not significant, or that others had a better view. I want to stress that anything they saw – no matter how minor it may seem – could be of crucial importance to our investigation."
Anyone with information is urged to contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 702 of 11 May 2026, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
