A Met Police officer who knocked down and killed a pedestrian during a police chase in Whitton has been banned from policing.

33 year old Daniel Francis pleaded guilty to causing death by careless driving following the incident November 2019. 

He was handed a suspended jail sentence. 

An investigation found gross misconduct allegations were proven against him and he was dismissed without notice. 

Francis was also placed on the police "barred" list following the Independent Office for Police Conduct hearing yesterday. 

23 year old Andrew Brown was killed as he crossed Whitton Road.
