Two Bangladeshi immigrants have died after being run over by a car in the US state of Arizona.
The accident occurred in the city of Phoenix at 5:45pm (local time) on Monday, said police.
The victims were identified as Mohammad Misbah Uddin Kajol, 50, and his 13-year-old son Abdullah Uddin, reports bdnews24.
Police detained Michelle Hagerman, 54, in connection with the incident on Wednesday morning, said Detective Sheikh Tyler.
Kajol was heading towards East Valley Islamic Center mosque with his son in the evening to offer the Maghrib prayers, said the police official. A black Dodge Durango ran them over at Erie Street and sped away.
The father died on the spot while his son was rushed to a hospital in critical condition. Abdullah succumbed to his injuries a day later.
Kajol had moved to the US with his wife, son, and daughter only 10 days ago, said his elder brother Dr Iqbal Uddin Jewel.
