Woman who died named locally as Karina Menzies, 32. Karina named on BBC news late last night.

From eye witness accounts, they thought more than one had died. Some of injuries were very bad. He ploughed across 4 lanes of traffic to kill Karina (allegedly) :-( :-(

Supercrutch - the deceased woman's name has been released. Give the police a ring if you are still concerned but I am sure that there is a perfectly reasonable explanation so don't worry unnecessarily x

Still nothing, I am going to try and sleep.

I just hope she was out and her mobile had no battery charge left.

I am concerned because she would have been walking home from work about that time.

latest update

A woman has been killed and 11 others injured – including seven children – in a series of hit and run crashes in Cardiff.

Police have arrested a 31-year-old man in the wake of the collisions, which occurred at six different locations in the Ely and Leckwith areas.

Superintendent Julian Williams from South Wales Police said the man was arrested while driving a white flat-bed truck.

He remains in custody at Cardiff Bay police station on suspicion of murder.

"Whether the actions were deliberate or reckless is a matter for the inquiry and the person will obviously be spoken to," Supt Williams said.

Family members of the 32-year-old woman who died have been informed.

Supt Williams said the fatality occurred at Cowbridge Road West, outside a fire station.

"Our thoughts are obviously with her family. Our family liaison officers are with the family at the moment," Supt Williams said.

Those injured - including seven children and four adults - have been taken to the city's University Hospital of Wales.

Their condition remains unknown.

A woman of 32 killed and 11 injured - no statement yet about extent of any of the injuries.

Listening to eye witnesses tonight on news, some of those injured will be in a bad way.

If somebody is a coward and has a grievance, cars are an easy weapon. Guns in America, but not so easy to get them here. But cars are easy. And he drove through highly populated areas of Cardiff. Just imagine what damage he could have done in Culverhouse Cross shopping centre :-( :-(
