A man was arrested for possession of Class A drugs after a schoolgirl was hit by a car.

Pedestrians flagged down a passing police car when a girl was injured in a road traffic collision on Wednesday last week.

Police arrived at the junction of Turnpike Lane and Hornsey Park Road at 3.35pm where they administered first aid to the girl until the London Ambulance Service arrived.

Officers subsequently arrested Agustin Marku, 21, of no fixed abode for possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply and possession of controlled identity documents with intent.

Marku appeared at Highbury Magistrates Court on Friday where he was remanded in custody to appear at Wood Green Crown Court on Tuesday April 7.
