@@MenBehavingBadly. Is the UK tough on crime? I know if you make mean posts on social media or get someone's pronouns wrong you're in big trouble. This? I'm not so sure.
This doesn’t sound right. I don’t think it was a smash or collision. It sounds like they were run over. Was there a second car involved? If so why were children driving it? Very dodgey reporting. Are our kids safe out there??
They were 2 young children. No details have been released yet. The police and air ambulance doctors could do nothing to help the poor kids that's all we know at this time and only one car was involved.
Stop being an idiot. Even before this cars have been the biggest killer of children in the UK ( apart from childhood illness ) for about 30 years, children have never been safe from car drivers we just turn a blind eye to it and buy bigger and more deadly cars.

My Prayers for these poor children and their families.. I understand People are scared especially riding illegally or being scared knowing they potentially killed someones children.. BUT WE Must deal with the responsibility of Our choices and running had Only made it worse .. Thankfully cameras all over the world might give the family closure but I still can't help but be empathetic for the people I'm almost sure hit them by accident... I mean people hit and run all the time simply out of fear.. and I'm sure 6 out of 10 of us done hit something whether the neighbors fence or the car double parked at the super market by accident and pulled the hell out of there.. so before We Judge people we should HONESTLY LOOK AT OUR OWN LIVES and see if we are All the way up to Our creators Code of Love and life before we go blaming people bad is ALL I'm saying!! The negative response is undoubtedly coming from People in the 6 out of the 10 range because thats the ones that blame others... I know I lived it myself .. pot calling kettle black.

They are not cops they are the police, for goodness sake grow up.

Yes it is murder.

Its literally not murder… this is why stupid people should not have a platform to spread more stupidity

What are you basing that on?
Do you know something the police don't?
