The harrowing incident occurred at approximately 3:33 pm when Logan, his aunt Rachel Poole, and two cousins were waiting at a bus stop near the junction of Kidbrooke Park Road. Suddenly, Mansfield’s vehicle veered towards them at considerable speed, colliding with a lamp post before striking the bus stop itself, ultimately pinning Logan against it.
