A man accused of the manslaughter of a woman who was hit by a car has denied a further charge of murder.
Ian Curson, 42, entered a not guilty plea to the new charge on Monday, before a jury was sworn in to try him at Leicester Crown Court.
Prosecutors allege Curson unlawfully killed Caragh Eaton, 28, who was pronounced dead shortly after a collision in Field Edge Drive, Barrow upon Soar, Leicestershire, on Tuesday September 6 last year.
Curson, of Fairhaven Road, Leicester, also denies manslaughter and possessing a ratchet as an offensive weapon.
Jurors were told the case will be opened by prosecution KC Tim Clark on Tuesday.
The trial is expected to last for around six weeks.
