Man arrested after car ploughs into crowd of pedestrians celebrating New Year

London: So, there was this wild incident during the New Year celebrations. A car suddenly swerved into a crowd of people, and it was pretty chaotic.

The police jumped into action and arrested a 40-year-old guy on suspicion of dangerous driving. This all went down around 12:13 AM at Primrose Hill, right when everyone was enjoying the fireworks.

Reports say the car hit a pedestrian and then tried to speed off, hitting another person on the road. Thankfully, the injuries weren’t too serious. A 21-year-old guy got minor injuries and didn’t even need medical help.

But a 59-year-old man was taken to the hospital, and his injuries were assessed as non-life changing. The police are looking into it, but they’ve confirmed it’s not being treated as a terror-related incident.

It’s just a reminder to be careful out there, especially during big celebrations. The police had already warned folks to stay away from the area after a tragic stabbing incident last year.
