The Province of Málaga has seen three incidents involving pedestrians in just one day, one of which was a case of a hit-and-run.

The last of the three occurred Tuesday night in Arroyo de La Miel on Avenida Antonio Machado, involving an 8-year-old, British boy. He was hit by a bus and rushed to the Hospital Materno Infantil in the city of Málaga. The driver was breathalysed but gave a negative reading.

Earlier that same day, but in the morning, a 12-year-old boy was hit by a car while on his way to school in Torremolinos. The driver fled the scene after the accident. Consequently, the Policía Local began to track down the driver. He was arrested the next day, actually onboard a plane, waiting for take-off, bound for Manchester, so we can hazard a guess at his nationality.

The accident occurred at around 09.15h actually on a zebra crossing just 800 metres from the victim’s school, I.E.S Concha Méndez Cuesta (high school). The lad is hospitalised with a skull fracture.

Finally, later in the morning, a 4-year-old toddler was struck by a commuter train in Torremolinos, near Montemar Alto. He remains hospitalised under observation
