Australian MP loses both legs after possible deliberate hit-and-run

65-year-old Haines was critically injured in a collision, resulting in the amputation of at least one leg. Her husband described her condition as critical but stable, emphasizing her fighting spirit. The 43-year-old suspect faces multiple charges, including assault and dangerous driving, with a court appearance scheduled for February 4. Witnesses suggest the incident may have been intentional, as one saw the driver turn around to hit Haines again. The suspect's father has been friends with Haines for over twenty years and has agreed to cooperate with the police investigation.
