Memorial show for Sheffield teen Jasmyn Chan five years on from hit and run tragedy

A memorial event honouring Sheffield teenager Jasmyn Chan who was killed by a hit and run driver is to be staged five years on from her tragic death.

Jasmyn, 14, died in May 2014 when she was hit by a speeding driver on Normanton Hill, Intake, saving the life of her friend Tia Tucker in the process by pushing her out of the way.
