An inquest has been opened following the death of a grandmother who was hit by an electric scooter. Linda Michele Davis died in King's Mill Hospital in Mansfield - six days after a teenage boy riding an e-scooter on the pavement collided with her in Rainworth last summer.
Ms Davis died on June 8 last year, aged 71. The inquest opening was held at Nottingham Council House on Tuesday (March 21).
Opening the inquest, assistant coroner Nathanael Hartley identified the place of death. He added that her provisional cause of death was head injury.

Mr Hartley told the hearing: "I have now opened an inquest. The hearing stays adjourned.
"I would like to offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Linda Davis." Earlier this month, a 14-year-old boy was sentenced after he admitted causing the death of Ms Davis while riding an e-scooter without insurance or a licence.
Pedestrian Ms Davis was injured when she was hit by the teenager on a privately-owned e-scooter on the pavement in Southwell Road East, Rainworth, on June 2 last year. The teenager was given a 12-month referral order, six-month parenting order to attend sessions, and a five-year driving ban.
A victim surcharge was imposed of £26 and £85 towards prosecution costs - which his parents will pay. Ms Davis was described as "amazing" by her family.
