Met officers investigated over pregnant woman’s police crash death- QHN


Two Metropolitan Police officers are under criminal investigation after a pregnant woman and her baby died in a collision with an unmarked police car in south-east London.

The woman, 38, who was in the full-term of her pregnancy, was driving a car which was hit by an unmarked police car on 17 October on Kidbrooke Park Road, Eltham.

Her car was hit by one of two police cars that were responding to an unrelated incident.

The police watchdog, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), said the officers were being investigated for potential driving offences including causing death by dangerous driving.

Both officers are also being investigated for potential gross misconduct proceedings, the IOPC said.

A third officer, who was a passenger in the car involved in the crash, is also being investigated for potential misconduct.
