Seven teenagers hurt at car accident

Seven teenagers have been hurt including one who was thrown 50ft off a bridge and through the rear window of a car after a racing Ferrari mounted the pavement and ploughed into pedestrians, eyewitnesses claim.

The £250,000 red sports car is said to have sent one boy ‘flying over the railings’ and onto a Toyota Corolla parked in the street below.

The seven teenagers, all aged around 16, were on their way to a college Christmas party in Southwest London and were walking near Battersea Dogs Home

Witnesses say the 2015 Ferrari 458 may have been racing a Range Rover shortly before the collision, which happened just yards from Battersea Dogs Home.

The driver stopped at the scene and has been arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving. He was taken to a west London police station and later bailed until April.

Four males and a female aged in their late teens were treated for minor injuries and discharged. A male aged 17 and female aged 16 remain in hospital for the treatment of injuries, which are not believed to be serious.
