WANTED – REWARD

INCIDENT

11:00 AM WEDNESDAY 30 JANUARY 2019.

A man was seen driving at speed before ramming pedestrians and cars in Woolwich, East London.

A mother was pushing a baby in a push chair on a busy pavement when a man drove at speed towards the pram. The driver missed the pedestrians who hid behind a row of parked cars, which were in turn totalled.

One of the parked cars which was rammed an unknown number of times belonged to a member of the Oman Royal Family. It is unclear at this stage whether the mother and baby or Omani Royal were the intended target.

At this stage the investigation remains open minded as to motives but is being treated at this stage as attempted murder.

When members of the public approached the driver, he drove off at speed in the direction of Tesco, Woolwich.
