A 31-year-old man from Coventry was arrested nearby on suspicion of assault, dangerous driving, driving while disqualified, driving without insurance, making off from the scene of an accident and failing to provide a sample.

Police Staff Investigator Russell Marsh said: "Prior to the collision we believe the victim and suspect had a verbal disagreement in the car. The victim got out of the car and a short time later the collision occurred. At this time we are treating this as a deliberate act.

"We're keen to speak to anyone who witnessed this collision or the collision in the Chantry. We're especially keen to hear from anyone who has dash cam footage from the area around the time of either incident."
