@news.com.au's TikTok video "Indika Bambrick Samarasinghe faces nine charges including dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm, negligent driving and causing bodily harm by misconduct. The P-plater was allegedly driving a BMW with two other people in the car when the vehicle struck supporters on Newcastle Link Road near Transfield Ave on Saturday morning. He has been in custody since his arrest at the weekend. Applying for Mr Samarasinghe’s release on bail on Friday, the teenager’s barrister told the court the “vehicle lost traction”. He was interrupted by Judge Trevor Khan, who said the road was used by thousands of people every day and that “none of them end up having spun out of the roadway through the roundabout”. “He’s (allegedly) run over several people as he’s gone through a roundabout,” Judge Khan said. “One of them is a child who suffered a brain injury, while another man … broke both his legs.” Judge Khan also noted the teenager was a “long way” from his home in Randwick, Sydney at the time of the crash. He ultimately granted the 18-year-old’s bail, describing the strict conditions of his release as “all duck, no dinner”. #newcastlecrash #newscastleknights #tragedy #pplater #bail #court" has 5,178 views, 29 likes, 0 comments, 3 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
