Teen girl is crushed to death by family car in front of her father.
> Lily Sedley-Jones, 17, was sitting alone in her family's Citroen C4, waiting for her father and brothers. For unknown reasons, she decided to get in the driver's seat and start the car's engine.
> The handbrake automatically disengaged when the engine started, and the car started rolling downhill. The car's doors locked automatically due to its speed, preventing the girl's father from entering.
> Her father watched helplessly as the car rolled across the road with Lily trapped inside. The panicked 17-year-old was unable to engage the brakes or escape the vehicle.
> Lily was heard screaming as the car crashed into a wall and flipped over, partially throwing the teen through a window.
> The vehicle rolled on top of Lily, crushing the girl's upper body between the vehicle and the road. She was declared dead at the scene from massive cerebral injuries.
