EXCLUSIVE Horrifying moment Audi appears to swerve into path of e-bikes in sickening crash that killed teenage pedestrian and left rider, 18, fighting for his life in hospital

Chilling CCTV footage shows the horrific moment a teenage pedestrian was mowed down by an Audi in a 'hit and run' yesterday. The incident, which took place in broad daylight, saw the grey car appear to swerve towards a group of e-bike riders before ploughing into the boy as he walked along the pavement. The 16-year-old was rushed to hospital and later died from his injuries. An 18-year-old e-bike rider who was also also struck by the vehicle remains fighting for his life. South Yorkshire Police have arrested a man and woman, both in their 40s, on suspicion of assisting an offender and remain in custody, whilst officers appeal for witnesses, footage, or any information about the crash. Video shared online appears to show two e-bike riders and a motorcyclist driving in one direction before a grey Audi driving in the opposite direction, appears to swerve into the lane the riders are on. In harrowing footage, the motorcyclist narrowly misses the car whilst one of the riders is brutally slammed into. In another video, after the rider is hit by the car, a pedestrian is seen being caught in the cross hairs and also be hit. After the horror, the Audi's driver side is seen leaving the scene with substantial damage to the wheel arch. A cordon remains in place on Staniforth Road while forensic work continues. Anyone with information is asked to contact 101, quoting incident number 630 of 4 June 2025. Detective Chief Inspector Andy Knowles said: 'We know that this incident will have caused significant concern in the local community, and tonight our thoughts are with the boy's loved ones following this tragic incident. 'Our investigation into what happened is continuing at pace and we currently have a scene in place on Staniforth Road as we continue to piece together the circumstances. 'We are aware of speculation being shared online, as well as footage of the incident, and we ask members of the public to withhold from speculating or sharing footage which may cause distress to the boy's family.' 'If you have any footage, imagery or information that may assist our investigation, then please share this with us - it may form an important part of our investigation.' Alternatively, details can be given anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or at
