A 27-year-old woman, Tiffany Treanor-Johnson, is jailed after a collision in Hackney in which she killed cyclist Harry Webb. The reports say she was driving at about 53 mph in a 20 mph zone when she hit Webb, then mounted the pavement and crashed into another car.
Outlets also report that police said Treanor-Johnson had inhaled nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) before the crash. Multiple sources describe the incident as involving dangerous speeding and subsequent damage after the collision, with one outlet specifying she left the scene after striking the cyclist. The differing coverage focuses mainly on the emphasis on “laughing gas” and the circumstances of the drive after the impact, but all describe the same underlying facts: speed, the cyclist’s death, and Treanor-Johnson’s conviction and sentencing.
