This is the shocking moment a car ploughs into four people outside a polling station, leaving a woman in hospital.
Dramatic footage filmed on Thursday afternoon shows a red car accelerating into the group on a quiet residential street in Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester before fleeing the scene.
Police told MailOnline two teenagers had been arrested in connection with the incident, while a 43-year-old woman was taken to hospital with superficial injuries.
The injured woman was identified by the Workers Party - including leader George Galloway - as one of its activists.
A spokesperson alleged the activist had been intentionally run down by a 'Labour supporter' in a fit of rage but did not provide any evidence.
A Labour source insisted no staff or activists were involved in the incident.
