Woman Killed By Car 'May Have Been Pushed'

Two pedestrians killed on a busy Norfolk road had seperately asked someone to call the police shortly before their deaths, detectives have revealed.

The man and woman, believed to be Lithuanian nationals in their 20s who were living in the area, died on Sunday afternoon after being hit by a car on the A47 east-bound at Terrington St John.

Police say they are treating the woman's death as suspicious following accounts by some witnesses that she may have been pushed into oncoming traffic.

Both the man and woman were walking barefoot towards King's Lynn on the busy dual carriageway at the time.

Det Chief Inspector Paul Durham, said that officers were trying to piece together the pair's movements but help from other witnesses is needed.

The first reported sighting of them is at 12.30pm on the Elm roundabout at Wisbech. At 1.20pm they stopped at Worzals Farm Shop in Walpole Highway and each asked an assistant to call police, giving no explanation about why. 

They left before police were called, the detective said.

He went on: "Witnesses then see them again walking along the verge of the A47 eastbound dual carriageway, where they are struck and killed by a single vehicle at 2.15pm.

"They would have posed an unusual sight - the woman wearing a bright pink vest-top and the man in designer-style jean shorts - both walking barefoot along one of our busiest trunk roads on one of the hottest days of the year.

"We need to find out how and why this tragedy occurred and I would urge anyone who thinks they may have seen them in the area, at any time on Sunday morning, to come forward with information."

The man is described as slim, white, 6ft 1in and with short dark hair. He was wearing blue knee-length jean shorts and a grey T-shirt.

The woman is described as slim, white, 5ft 7in, and with long auburn hair. She was wearing a bright pink vest top and black knee-length leggings.

Police are trying to trace next of kin and will not reveal the pair's identity until their families have been told.

Anyone with information can call police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
