Family's tribute to 'caring' grandmother hit by car in Burnley

Lynne Harvey was a "loving and caring friend", her family said

A woman who was knocked down and killed in a car park was a "true fighter until the end", her family has said.

Lynne Harvey, 72, was one of two pedestrians who were hit by a Vauxhall outside Greenhill Social and Bowling Club in Burnley at 17.50 GMT on Monday.

A 74-year-old man arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving has been released under investigation.

Ms Harvey's family said they would miss her forever and would hold "fond memories in our hearts".

"She always looked after, loved, and cared for her children," they added.

"She loved, talked about, and adored her grandchildren, never failing to mention them.

"A loving and caring friend. A tragic loss to us all. She will be remembered for as long as we live."

Police were called to Greenhill Social and Bowling Club on Manchester Road

The other woman hit by the vehicle was treated for minor injuries.

The suspect, from Burnley, was also arrested on suspicion of failing to stop at the scene of an accident and driving while unfit through drink or drugs.

Lancashire Police have appealed for anyone with information or footage to come forward.
