Police investigating the death of a seven-year-old girl in a hit-and-run in Walsall say they have found two abandoned motorbikes, while a 14-year-old boy arrested over the incident has been released on bail.
The discovery came after Katniss Seleznev’s mother, Tsvetelina Selezneva, spoke of her devastation at her daughter’s death, saying her “soul is aching” after losing her “star”.
The child was found with critical injuries and was taken to Birmingham children’s hospital, but later died. The 14-year-old boy was arrested by West Midlands police officers on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
Paying tribute to Katniss in a Facebook post, her mother said that her “heart is bleeding”. She said: “God took her away too young and fragile. I don’t have strength and I don’t want to say goodbye to you, my star. How to let you go, my heart is bleeding, my soul is aching.”
On Saturday, Det Sgt Paul Hughes, from the force’s serious collision investigation unit, said: “Our work to establish the facts around this tragic incident is continuing.
“We have recovered two motorbikes and they will now be forensically examined as part of those extensive enquiries. And, at this awful time, our thoughts remain with the family of Katniss, who are being supported and have asked to be left to grieve in private.
“I would also like to extend my thanks to all those people who have already come to us with information – it is truly appreciated. We would ask again that anyone who was at the scene does still come forward, as what they know may be valuable to our ongoing investigation.”
Flowers, balloons and stuffed toys were left at the scene of the crash on Friday.
Dozens of bunches of brightly coloured bouquets paid tribute to the girl, with one reading: “I will remember your beautiful soul for ever. Thinking and praying for your family.” Another says: “Rest in peace beautiful girl.”
A steady stream of people have been visiting the scene to add their own tributes and comfort each other.
