Man and woman are killed after the car they were in was chased by police after 'aggravated burglary' and
smashed into coach while speeding the wrong way down London dual carriageway
Police said they responded to aggravated burglary report in Harrow this evening
They were then led on a high-speed crash towards central London by suspects
Three people were inside the vehicle, two were pronounced dead on the scene
One suspect was taken to hospital for treatment and their condition is unknown
A man and a woman have been killed in west London after a people carrier being chased by police responding to a burglary smashed into a coach while driving on the wrong side of the road.
Three suspects were said to be inside the Renault Megane as their car sped down the A40 in Acton at around 9pm on Sunday and struck the oncoming coach.
Police had trailed the car for several miles towards central London after the three suspects fled the scene of an alleged aggravated burglary at an address in Harrow.
A police helicopter was called in to assist officers following the suspects, and reports on social media suggested as many as 10 police cars were involved in the chase.
According to police, a male and female occupant were pronounced dead on the scene of the horror accident - with a third being rushed to hospital for treatment.
It is not clear if there were any injuries on the coach, which was driving out of London on the A40 Westway.

The above doesn't mention the police calling off the pursuit when the car began driving on the wrong side of the carriageway.The police relied on the helicopter to keep them informed of the cars whereabouts.

A40 police chase on wrong side of dual-carriageway is more fake false news from spotty. A vehicle being chased by police drove down the wrong side of the dual-carriagway ,cops were quick to make the point ,but not quick enough for spotty.

"A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: 'At approximately 21:00hrs the vehicle being pursued moved onto the wrong side of the carriageway on the A40. The police vehicles did not follow".

So they were being chased for suspected agravated burglary (so weapon must have been brandished ?) were getting desperate (Renault Megan not the best get away vehicle ) were driving on inside of grass hard shoulder going into oncoming traffic and they struck fence on inside and bounced into a bus ? Pity cops did not strike earlier but damned if they do damned if they don’t ,what’s the answer to protect them and public from these sort of idiots ?

. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6695255/Heavily-pregnant-teenager-new-husband-named-crash-victims.html Seven-months-pregnant newlywed, 18, and her husband, 19, are named as burglary suspects who were killed after their car ploughed into a coach during high-speed police pursuit Newlyweds Patrick McDonagh, 19, and Shauna, 18, killed in west London crash Pair smashed head on into a coach while driving on the wrong side of the A40 Police pursed the car following reports of an aggravated burglary in Harrow Couple were expecting first child in April. Baby is not thought to have survived A heavily-pregnant teenager and her husband were killed after their car ploughed into a coach following a high-speed police pursuit. Newlyweds Patrick and Shauna McDonagh - who were expecting their first child together - were tailed by at least nine police cars and a helicopter before the horror crash in west London on Sunday night. The couple were suspects in an aggravated burglary that took place north of the capital in Pinner, Harrow, a short time earlier. Mr McDonagh, 19, and his wife, 18, who got married just 11 weeks ago, were pronounced dead at the scene after their car smashed head on into a coach while they were driving on the wrong side of the A40 dual carriageway. Their unborn baby girl, who was due in April, is not believed to have survived the crash. A third person in the car was taken to hospital and has since been arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary. Three victims - a man in his 30s, a woman in her late 50s and a man in his late 60s - were threatened with a 'large hunting knife' and screwdriver after being confronted by four men during a raid in north London. The younger victim was punched in the face before the thieves fled the scene with cash and jewellery. |
