Woman arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after car crashes into pedestrians in London

A 29-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a car hit pedestrians in London in the early hours of Sunday.

The Metropolitan Police said officers were called to reports that a vehicle had been involved in a collision on Argyll Street, Westminster, at around 4.30am.

A man in his 50s sustained life-changing injuries and was taken to hospital, along with two women in their 30s, one of whom is in a critical condition. The second woman was treated for minor injuries.

The driver of the car was arrested at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder, GBH, dangerous driving and drink driving. She remains in custody.

The incident, which took place in a busy part of central London, is not being treated as terrorism-related.

Detective chief inspector Alison Foxwell called for potential witnesses to come forward.

She said: "As our inquiries continue, our thoughts are with those injured and their loved ones.

"While this incident took place in the early hours of the morning, venues in the area were still open, and we believe a number of people will have seen what happened.

"I would urge anyone who witnessed the collision, or any activity prior to it that they feel may be of relevance, to come forward.

"The information you have - however minor you believe it may be - could be of crucial importance to investigators."
