Chilling footage shows a woman dancing in the street before being hit by a car and carried on the bonnet up the road by Wembley Arena.

The incident happened shortly after 11pm following a gig at the northwest London venue by artist Alkaline.

Footage filmed by onlookers shows the women narrowly avoiding passing cars before one smashes into her and drags her 30 yards where she is thrown to the ground.

Horrified witnesses called 999 but the woman had left the scene before they arrived. Police are now trying to trace her to speak with her about the incident and make sure she is OK.

The car did not stop at the scene, police said, but a 33-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and driving while over the prescribed alcohol limit.

She has since been released on bail to a date in early June.
