Murder investigation as pedestrian struck by car in Nottinghamshire dies in hospital

A murder investigation has been launched after a man who was part of a group of pedestrians struck by a car in Nottinghamshire died in hospital.

Tyler Fairman, 26, sustained life-threatening injuries in Market Place, Arnold, at the weekend and was pronounced dead on Tuesday night, Nottinghamshire Police said.

Police said multiple pedestrians were hurt when a red Vauxhall Astra mounted a kerb at 1.12am on Saturday.

Duane Anthony, 40, was arrested and then later charged with five counts of attempted murder.

He was also charged with aggravated vehicle taking, driving while disqualified and driving without valid insurance.

Anthony was remanded in custody on Monday and is due to appear at Nottingham Crown Court on 8 June.

Detective Chief Inspector Ruby Burrow said: "As we release the sad news of Tyler's death, our first thoughts go to his family and loved ones at this difficult time.

"Both they and the other people injured or affected by this collision continue to be supported by specially trained police officers.

"We can also confirm today that this is now a murder investigation.

"As such, criminal proceedings are active, so anything relating to this incident should be shared with the police, not online, as doing so could potentially impede the pursuit of justice.

"We are aware of videos of the incident circulating on social media and have informed the victims and their families of this.

"They have appealed to anyone who has shared or posted any such videos to take them down immediately so that Tyler's family can grieve in peace."
