A 34 year-old-Egyptian woman died on spot after being run over by speeding car at King Abdul-Aziz road in Al Qasimiya area of Sharjah.
The woman had shopped at Bein Al Qasrain outlet for gifts and was trying to cross the road when she was hit by a speedy vehicle driven by an Arab driver.
The police received call at 3:30 pm at the operation room which dispatched the patrol and traffic expert who arrived in the site of the accident where they found the woman already passed away.
