A man has pleaded guilty to causing death by careless driving after a crash that killed a four-year-old girl in Birmingham.
Mayar Yahia died after being hit by a car on Upper Highgate Street on 14 April 2024. Three others were hurt in the crash.
Javonnie Tavener, 23, of no fixed address, also admitted causing death while driving uninsured and two counts of causing serious injury by careless driving at Birmingham Crown Court on Wednesday. He was remanded into custody and will be sentenced at a future date.
After her death, Mayar’s father, Babiker Yahia, said she had been an “extraordinary young girl”, “full of life and joy”, and her loss had left the family with an “irreplaceable void”.
