When he was arrested later on Wednesday evening, he failed a breathalyser and also had cannabis in his system, police said.

The victim was named as Camilla Christina Pamdahl, 46, from Sweden, who was on holiday with her five-year-old daughter.

Reports said Camilla had left the child with a babysitter at her hotel so she could go shopping.

She was hit on a pedestrian crossing in the resort at around 5.30pm.

It was claimed a car had stopped to let her cross when the rented buggy zoomed past it and ploughed into her.

“A young man driving the rental buggy overtook a stopped car, and hit the woman,” police said.

Camilla was taken to hospital in Famagusta but could not be saved.

Social workers and a child psychologist were looking after the victim’s young daughter until her father arrived on the island.

Police told KNEWS neither the Brit driver or his passenger were injured in the incident.

The passenger stayed at the scene but the driver ran away.

The Brit’s photo was released to local media and an arrest warrant was issued.

He was tracked down hours later and hauled in front of a judge today.

He was ordered to be held in custody for six days as the investigation continues.
