A spokesman for William and Kate told the Mail they were ‘deeply concerned and saddened’ at what had happened and had been in touch with the elderly woman’s family. Flowers have been sent.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct said the 83-year-old victim – named by neighbours as Irene Mayor – was taken to a London hospital where she is in a serious but stable condition.
‘In line with procedure, the Metropolitan Police Service referred the collision to the IOPC,’ it said in a statement. ‘Our staff attended the scene of the incident and after careful consideration, we have launched an independent investigation.
The investigation is in its very early stages and the officer involved is assisting our enquiries as a witness.’ The incident occurred on Upper Richmond Road, south-west London, at 12.50pm on Monday (pictured main).
