'Good Samaritan' murder accused in court TOWN DEAL UPDATE - PAGE 06
DIP INTO THE NEW YEAR- PAGE 05
A 23-year-old man has appeared in court charged with murdering a father-of-two who was hit by a car as he tried to help a stranger in Sheffield, writes Kevin Shoesmith for the BBC. Chris Marriott, 46, died while giving first aid to a woman lying unconscious in a street in the Burngreave area of the city on Wednesday. Hassan Jhangur, of Whiteways Road, Sheffield, appeared at the city's magistrates' court on Saturday. He is also charged with five counts of attempted murder. The case was adjourned until Tuesday when Mr Jhangur is due to appear at Sheffield Crown Court. He has been remanded in custody.
On Friday evening, South Yorkshire Police said a 32-year-old woman remained in hospital in a serious condition.
Officers said Mr Marriott - who they described as a "Good Samaritan" - had been walking with his sons, aged six and eight, when the incident happened. He was among several people, including an off-duty midwife who had also stopped to help, hit by a car on College Close, the force said. Mr Marriott died at the scene. In a statement, his family said he was "a wonderful husband, dad, brother, uncle - and friend to many".
