On August 18, four-year-old Karamveer Singh, who was crossing Baverstock Rd in Flat Bush with his mother, Mandeep Kaur, at around 8 a.m. was hit by a white sedan, breaking the bone in his right leg.

Mandeep, who is 37 weeks pregnant, was on her way to the preschool with her son and his cousin Manraj Singh, when she saw a white sedan far away. The car was far away, but when Mandeep saw it approaching quickly towards them, she pulled back the boys. However, Karamveer had taken a step forward and was hit by the fast-moving car.

The driver did not stop and was seen taking a left on Chapel Road.

The police is currently looking into the matter. Although the CCTV footage shows the vehicle, the registration number is not visible.

The police is seeking help from the public and has requested anyone who can help them identify the owner to come forward.
