Nicky Campbell said his daughter Lilla was hit by an e-bike in Peckham last night and was badly injured. He said the 26-year-old had been with her sisters when the incident happened and that she was later at home.
Campbell wrote on Instagram on Saturday morning: "It’s been a long and emotional night". He also said, "My daughter Lilla was hit by an e-bike hit and run last night in Peckham – hopefully there is CCTV."
Peckham and Campbell
Campbell said the rider who hit Lilla scarpered after seeing the ambulance arrive. He added, "She is badly injured but now at home" and, "It could have been so much worse. We are incredibly lucky."
He said the incident happened in London and that Lilla was rushed to the hospital after the crash. That sequence matters because it places the injury, the emergency response and the return home within a short window on the same night.
King’s College Hospital
Campbell said that after Lilla reached King’s College Hospital A&E, "a drunk entered the trauma room where they were and exposed himself to them." He said, "The police were magnificent" and added, "I spoke to them when I arrived at 3.15, and he is now in custody."
He also thanked the wonderful staff at King’s College Hospital, calling them "superb". For readers following the case, the practical unknown is the injury itself: Campbell said Lilla was badly injured, but gave no further detail on what treatment she needed.
Campbell’s account leaves a clear picture of two separate traumas on the same night — the e-bike hit-and-run in Peckham and the incident in the trauma room — with police now holding the man he said was arrested. The immediate next step for anyone looking for updates is to watch for any further statement from Campbell or police about what happened in Peckham and what injuries Lilla suffered.
