Teen charged over shocking hit and run which killed pet dog and injured woman
Police have charged a teenager following a shocking crash in which a dog walker was knocked down and her pet killed.
Investigators arrested a 17-year-old boy on August 7 in connection with the incident.
He was released under investigation to allow them to carry out further enquiries – and yesterday the suspect, now aged 18, was charged with several offences.
Kallum Aish has been charged with causing serious injury by dangerous driving, failing to stop at the scene of an accident, driving with no insurance or licence, criminal damage and cannabis possession.
The woman was run over in Doe Bank Lane, Great Barr, on July 22.
She survived but her beloved pet dog Millie sadly died at the side of the road.
West Midlands Police released video footage of the collision and had an overwhelming response to the appeal with the footage shared thousands of times and watched by millions of people.
Aish, from Finchley Road in Kingstanding, is set to appear at Birmingham Magistrates Court on January 28 for his first appearance.
