A TRUCK driver who allegedly struck and fatally injured a pedestrian on Sydney’s northern beaches has been shown on security camera footage cleaning his vehicle and disposing of an item of clothing — which police allege had been caught under his truck.

Police will allege one of the items thrown into a skip bin was a purple jacket belonging to the victim.

After Emmanuel Xiberras, 36, allegedly hit Jo-Ann Thwaites, 60, as she made her way across a pedestrian crossing at Brookvale on Friday, he continued driving to his next delivery at an IGA in Allambie Heights.

Mrs Thwaites was then hit by a second truck which dragged her several hundred metres before stopping.

Police say Xiberras then allegedly disposed of Mrs Thwaites’ clothes that had been caught on his truck and threw them in a bin.

The CCTV footage allegedly shows Xiberras parking behind the shopping complex and appearing to clean part of the truck before disposing of items resembling clothing in the bin.

Superintendent Stuart Smith claimed “certain clothing items, certain exhibits, were disposed of from the fatality” at Allambie Heights.

“There is a family that we need to give closure to,” Supt Smith said.

Xiberras was charged with fail to stop and render aid after impact causing death and negligent driving occasioning death. He will appear in court next month.

Xiberras was delivering Lilydale chickens at the time of the crash and continued driving for the rest of the day until police arrested him and seized the truck at the Girraween facility.

When confronted by police it is understood he told them that he thought the sound of the impact was a “flat tyre”.

“It wasn’t her fault she took a car to be serviced I believe and she’s lost her life that day. Everybody is distraught. It was a dreadful event, she was dragged by a second heavy vehicle for some period. She was on a pedestrian crossing she was legally entitled to be there,” Supt Smith said.

Ms Thwaites had been offered a lift home from the mechanic by her son Nicholas but had decided to walk instead.

“I offered to pick her up because she would be without a car but she was that into her walking and loved it every morning that she decided she wanted to walk home,” Nicholas said.

The company Xiberras drove for, Baiada Poultry, is co-operating with police.
