A man has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving after a nine-year-old girl was killed in a collision with a bus last summer.
Martin Asolo-Agogua, 23, of Nunhead, was also charged on Thursday with causing death by careless driving when under influence of drink or drugs and driving whilst over the drug limit.
Ada Bicakci and her five-year-old brother were hit by a bus in Watling Street near the junction with Halcot Avenue, in Bexleyheath, on Saturday, August 3. They were with a family member at the time.
Both children were taken to hospital, but despite the efforts of medical staff, Ada died two days later.
Ada’s family continue to be supported by specialist officers, Met Police said.
Asolo-Agogua, who was driving the bus, was arrested on the day of the incident on suspicion of causing serious injury through dangerous driving and drug-driving.
He has been bailed and is due to attend Bromley Magistrates’ Court on Monday, March 24.
After her death police said Ada, a Turkish-British national who lived locally and went to school in the area, was a keen gymnast and swimmer.
Her family have said that following her death, Ada's organs were donated to help six other children.
