Despite efforts from emergency services, Ms Jonikaite died at the scene. A 33-year-old man from Crawley who was arrested at the scene on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, two counts of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, and driving while unfit through drugs has been released on bail. On Thursday, an inquest into Ms Jonikaite's death was opened and then suspended as police investigations continue. Area Coroner for West Sussex, Joseph Turner said her death was 'plainly violent', meaning he was required to open the inquest. A post-mortem investigation, conducted by Dr Ashley Fegan-Earl, found the provisional cause of death was craniocervical trauma, the inquest heard. The coroner then adjourned the inquest due to the ongoing police investigation. Dominyka Jonikaite had started working as a blood and transplant nurse (GoFundMe/PA) Born in Lithuania, Ms Jonikaite had graduated from a degree in Biomedical Science from Bangor University and was working as a blood and transplant nurse.
