A horrifying incident involving a pregnant woman being killed in a crash with her unborn baby occurred in Australia recently.
As per reports from 7News, the entire community is said to be in a state of mourning after the woman was struck and killed during a two-vehicle collision. Now, sources are speaking about how a 19-year-old was charged with negligent driving after this incident.
As per reports from 7News, police in New South Wales explained how the 33-year-old pregnant female was walking along the street in the Sydney suburb at about 8 pm local time on Friday when the incident arose. She was with her husband and their 3-year-old child.
Assistant Commissioner David Driver mentioned how Kia slowed down to let her family cross in front of them near the entrance of the parking garage when all of a sudden, a giant white BMW struck the Kia vehicle from the back.
As a result of this crash, the Kia impacted the 33-year-old female. The driver shared during a press conference that as a result of this impact, she’s now dead, and very sadly, she also happened to be eight months pregnant, and her unborn child also passed away.
The BMW was being driven by a 19-year-old man, and a 48-year-old man was driving the Kia. Neither vehicle had any other passengers aboard. Both drivers were rushed to a nearby Hornsby Hospital for mandatory testing, and the outlets shared how neither man sustained any injuries.
