Boy racers street racing killed 16 year old girl. Oldham 23 February
Two 'boy racers' who used roads as "their personal racetrack" reaching speeds of 133mph have been jailed after killing a 16-year-old student as she walked to college.
Alisha Goup died after being hit as Omar Choudhury's BMW mounted the pavement as he raced another BMW at 66mph - more than twice the speed limit.
Choudhury, 22, had met Hamidur Rahman, a member of his extended family, 'by chance' before the pair began racing in Oldham on 23 February, a court was told.
CCTV footage showed the men speeding through streets and overtaking cars before heading along Rochdale Road.
Choudhury hit Alisha, in his BMW 3 series with the distinctive registration OM08 ARR, after hitting a white Ford Fiesta turning at a junction and losing control as he attempted to overtake on the wrong side of the road.
Alisha died at the scene.
But, despite hitting Alisha, Choudhury continued to drive through traffic lights and away from the scene.
He finally came to a stop outside the Royal Oldham Hospital due to the damage to his car.
Members of the public then tried to assist, as they did with Alisha, and detained Choudhury at the scene until officers arrived.
When speaking to an officer after his arrest Choudhury said: "Have I killed someone?"

Maybe a good reason for going to shop in dressing gown in front of child, no good reason for blocking people by parking right by the front door and especially no good reason for speeding through car park. Oxford January 2023
