Fatal pedestrian incidents in New South Wales

Overview

Two separate fatal incidents involving vehicles and pedestrians have been reported in New South Wales.

In late August 2026, a 73-year-old man, Trevor Fleet, died following an alleged hit-and-run in Bega. Police established Strike Force Delor to locate a female driver who reportedly reversed into Mr. Fleet following a face-to-face interaction on Newtown Road before fleeing the scene.

In October 2026, an 88-year-old woman died after being struck by a car in Pyree. Emergency services responded to the collision on Pyree Lane, and the victim was airlifted to St George Hospital in critical condition before passing away. The driver, a 43-year-old woman, tested negative during a roadside breath test. The South Coast Police District has launched an investigation, and a report will be prepared for the coroner.
