A little girl lost her life after being fatally struck by an Uber driver who had just dropped her family home.
On Sunday, three adults and a 1-year-old girl were dropped off at an apartment complex in Aldine, Tex., according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office. A neighbor’s home surveillance camera caught footage of the silver Volkswagen SUV pulling into the parking lot. A woman in pink pajamas and two children walked to the sidewalk.
Trailing behind them was the toddler who was seen walking closely in front grill of the vehicle.
In another clip, the same vehicle is seen parked a few feet ahead from its original position. The driver opened the car door and stepped out to complete chaos.
“When the Uber driver saw the female adult clear at a couple of feet, he began driving forward to turn around, accidentally rolling over the child,” said Lt. K. Benoit to NBC affiliate Click2Houston.
