CCTV released on Saturday captured the white Mitsubishi careering sideways down the street before it crashed at speed into the oncoming car.

The driver of the Mitsubishi fled the scene, leaving Ms Abdallah to die in the wreckage.

Investigators say they are yet to identify the male who was behind the wheel.
