A US citizen has been told he will be extradited to face courts in the UK after he lost an appeal in court in the US.

Isac Calderon was charged by police in the UK with causing serious injury by dangerous driving, following a car crash in Herefordshire which left mental health nurse Elizabeth Donowho seriously injured.

He left the UK on a commercial flight to Texas in November 2023 and failed to attend a UK court hearing the following month. Court documents allege he had been seen overtaking vehicles at high speed before the crash.
