Four men and a teenage boy have been freed on bail by police investigating the death of a 10-year-old boy who was knocked down and killed in York.

Sean Hamilton, who lived locally, was crossing Holgate Road on Saturday night when he was hit by a Ford Transit van.

Witnesses said the van then crashed into parked cars and two occupants were seen running away, leaving the engine running and the radio blaring.

The five were released pending further inquiries, police said.

All of them live locally, and are aged between 16 and 22.

Sean had been with his elder sister and two friends when the crash happened at about 2020 BST.

Judge not unless ye be judged.

I'll agree, this is just a sickening case. You run over a small boy and just flee the scene instead of calling for help? If they had called for help, maybe there would have been a chance for the boy to live. But they decided to hit and run. I hope they get a good long time in prison.
