Girl, four, dies in hospital after being hit by car
Police say the man was questioned and bailed as investigators seek witnesses and dash-cam footage after the fatal crash.
On Sunday, July 12, a four-year-old girl died following a collision on Nottingham Road in Gotham after emergency services responded at 2:28 p.m.
Nottinghamshire Police arrested a 59-year-old man on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving; he was questioned and released on bail.
Sergeant Paul Clark called the incident "deeply tragic" and appealed for dashcam footage and witnesses to contact police quoting incident 424.
The Serious Collision Investigation Unit is managing the inquiry and seeking anyone in the vicinity during Sunday's crash to come forward with information.
Police asked the public to respect the family's privacy during this "unimaginably difficult time" and to avoid social media speculation about the Nottingham Road incident.
