Girl is run over by chairman’s Rolls outside Hull KC Stadium

A TEENAGE Hull City fan suffered a suspected broken ankle when she was hit by the chairman’s Rolls Royce outside the KC Stadium on Saturday.

The 15-year-old was hurt when she was hit by Assem Allam’s blue Rolls Royce Silver Spur 3 as she walked around the stadium following the club’s 2-1 Championship victory over Nottingham Forest.

A spokesman for Mr Allam, who is also the club’s owner, said he was aware of the incident but was not in the car at the time. It is thought one of his drivers was behind the wheel.

The spokesman said: “I can confirm Dr Allam’s car was involved in an incident on Saturday evening after the match at the KC Stadium. However, Dr Allam was not in the car at the time, nor was he in the vicinity of the incident when it occurred and therefore did not witness anything.

“We believe the incident is currently being investigated and therefore feel further comment would be inappropriate at this time.”

Humberside Police are investigating the incident and have appealed for witnesses.
