A 16-year-old schoolboy killed in a suspected hit-and-run in Sheffield was on his way to pick up a takeaway, witnesses have said.

Abdullah Yaser Abdullah Al Yazidi, known locally as Abdul, was walking along the pavement on Staniforth Road, in Darnall, when he was hit by a grey Audi on Wednesday afternoon.

The car appeared to swerve towards three e-bike riders, crashing into one of them before hitting Abdul.
