The driver of a 4×4 which crashed into a school, killing two children, has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau, both eight, died in the incident at the Study Prep School in Wimbledon, south-west London, in July 2023 while celebrating the last day of the summer term.

In June last year, the Metropolitan Police said the driver had suffered an epileptic seizure and would face no criminal charges.

But the girls’ families said they were unconvinced the investigation had been carried out thoroughly, and in October the force said it would reopen its inquiry.
