Pc John James Dougal pleaded not guilty to causing the death of 16-year-old Hayley Adamson by dangerous driving on May 19.

The officer spoke only to confirm his name and enter the not guilty plea during the brief hearing at Newcastle Crown Court.

Dougal was released on unconditional bail and told to return to court on March 30 for his trial, which is expected to last five days.

Hayley was crossing a road in Newcastle's West End on the eve of her GCSE English exam when the marked Northumbria Police car collided with her.

Dougal, who was at the wheel, was charged with causing death by dangerous driving following an investigation by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC).

A second officer in another patrol car will not face prosecution.

Hayley, a pupil of Sacred Heart High School who lived with her mother Yvonne in Cedar Road, Fenham, was out with a group of friends in the Scotswood area of the city when she was fatally injured in Denton Road.
