The poor girl

Girl killed while walking to school

KUALA LUMPUR: A 12-year-old girl, who could not contact her parents to send her to school after she missed the bus, was killed in a hit-and-run accident while walking to school.

Nicole Lim died on the spot after she was hit by two cars at 7am yesterday.

She was thrown to the ground when the first car hit and dragged her about 400m along Jalan Kuching before the second car hit her.

The SK Batu Caves pupil decided to walk to school after she missed her school bus.

What in the world has our society become? How on earth did Malaysians become some cruel? To hit a 12 year-old girl and leave her to death. To drag her for 400 metres and NOT even stop to at least help, even if she had died instantly. And what more, she was hit by another car. I shudder to think of how she had looked like after both cars hitting her.

Makes you wonder if the drivers are blind, or just heartless.
