by Ivy

Police have appealed to identify a dancing woman believed to have been hit by a car after a concert in north London.

Footage filmed by a bystander shows the woman dancing in the road at Engineers Way near Wembley Arena on Thursday night and narrowly avoiding passing vehicles.

The Met Police said a car hit the woman at about 23:10 BST and carried her on the bonnet for about 30 yards (27m) before she was thrown to the ground, but did not stop at the scene. An ambulance was called but the woman had left when emergency services arrived.

A 33-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and driving whilst over the prescribed alcohol limit and was released on bail.
