Gabrielle Carrington, 29, known as RIELLEUK, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following the incident on Argyll Street in Soho in the early hours of Sunday morning, April 19. According to a Metropolitan Police spokesperson, officers were called around 04:30hrs after reports that a car had collided with pedestrians. The collision involved a car and pedestrians, leaving social media star Klaudia Zakrzewska, known as Klaudiaglam, in a serious, life-threatening condition.
Two other pedestrians were hit: a man in his 50s sustained life-changing injuries, and a woman in her 30s was treated for minor injuries. Police charged Carrington with attempted murder, grievous bodily harm with intent, actual bodily harm, and drink driving. She has been remanded in custody and will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, April 21.
The incident is not being treated as terrorism-related. Klaudia Zakrzewska had been at the Inca nightclub with friends that night. A video circulating online appears to show the moment a black car drove into a group of people.
The exact cause or motive behind the collision remains unclear. The current medical condition and prognosis for Zakrzewska and the injured man have not been disclosed. Specific events leading up to the collision on Argyll Street are still under investigation.
