A BBC documentary "Madness in the Fast Lane" was aired on 10th August 2010 about an incident which happened in May 2008. The whole story is quite bizarre - and deeply troubling.
I have included more photos information, notes and 2 news reports below, but have summarised the main events described/shown/reconstructed in the documentary:
- 2 woman are noticed on traffic CCTV walking down the centre of the M6 motorway (between crash barriers)
- Police go to get them
- One woman crosses the oncoming traffic and is HIT by a car but seems unhurt - she gets up.
- Police talk to them on the hard shoulder to find out what has happened.
- BOTH women JUMP into the oncoming traffic
- One woman is hit by a big truck and run over - she ends up in hospital
- Other woman (Sabina) is hit by a CAR (see below for a still from the documentary - showing the damage to the car she caused)
- Officers try to check and treat injuries while they are on the ground
- Woman hit (TWICE) by a car GETS UP and PUNCHES the officer and tries to run INTO the OTHER CARRIAGEWAY
- 6 people grab the woman and she is restrained and taken to hospital.
- She is RELEASED (seemingly unharmed) the next day and charged at the police station (this is filmed).
- Police find out the 2 girls are Swedish IDENTICAL TWINS (with 1 passport between them)
- Police suspect drug abuse, but blood tests reveal no unusual substances.
- Sabina (girl hit twice by a car) seems calm - and unconcerned about her sister who is still critically ill).
- After a short psychiatric assessment, Sabina is RELEASED and then meets up with Glenn Hollinshead in Fenton (near Stoke)
- The next day she stabs and kills Hollinshead
- She runs away with a hammer, hitting her head, is restrained by someone, but jumps off a bridge into another road.
- She breaks both ankles, fractures her skull but SURVIVES
- She is arrested and charged with manslaughter and she is currently serving a 5 year sentence (due for Parole release in 2011)
- Meanwhile, her sister has recovered and gone back to America.
