A DELIVEROO driver has been found guilty of causing death by careless driving after hitting an elderly man as he crossed the road.
Mustafa Sayed, 55, was en route to deliver some food to a customer when he approached the junction of School Lane and Parrs Wood Road in Didsbury.
As the lights changed from red to green he turned right on to Parrs Wood Road.
At the same time, on November 14, 2022, Sadrudin Noormaohamed Adatia, 86, was slowly crossing the road using his walking aid.
Sayed struck Mr Adatia causing him to be thrown into the air, Manchester Crown Court had heard.
He died as a result of his injuries the following morning.
Sayed, of Withington, denied causing death by driving without due care and attention, but following a two-day trial, he was unanimously found guilty by jurors yesterday.
