7:30am Saturday 4th September 2010 in
The bail of a girl suspected of killing her friend in a joyride smash has been extended because of her injuries.
The 17-year-old was arrested after the crash which involved Mikeala Stevens, also 17, in New Addington.
She was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle theft and driving without insurance.
Miss Stevens, 17, died after she was thrown from the car when it smashed into a telegraph pole at high speed in Overbury Crescent.
Another girl had to be sedated after being found screaming in agony near to the smashed car.
Witnesses said the car had been travelling along the road with its horn blaring just moments before the smash.
Miss Stevens, from Cudham Drive, had just returned home after spending an evening with her boyfriend when a friend came by and picked her up at about 3am on Saturday.
The former Addington High School pupil was unaware the car had been taken from her friend’s mother, allegedly without permission.
