Family tribute after fatal Bamber Bridge collision

The family of a woman who died following a collision in Bamber Bridge last month have paid tribute to her.

Police were called to Tramway Lane at around 6.35pm on 24th October to a report of a collision between an Audi S3 and a pedestrian.

The pedestrian, 37-year-old Himabindu Yadla, suffered serious injuries and was taken to hospital.

She died in hospital on 11th November 

Her brother Hemanth Yadla said: "We fully support the police investigation to find out what happened. We are so heartbroken that she is no longer with us and our lives have been changed forever.

‘’My sister leaves an 8-year-old daughter behind, and we are all focused on making sure she is taken care of."

A 34-year-old man arrested at the scene on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving and driving while unfit through drugs has been released under investigation.

Police continue to appeal for witnesses and footage of the collision as we investigate what happened.
