The family of a young expectant couple who were mowed down as they walked their dogs have only an unfinished baby blanket to remember them by.
Kate Leadbetter, 31, and her partner Matthew Field, 37, were about to become parents for the first time, to a son they named Miles, when they were run over in Alexandra Hills in eastern Brisbane on Australia Day.
They were allegedly hit by a 17-year-old driver of a stolen Land Cruiser who was high on drugs, on bail for 50 other charges, and rammed another car hours before.
He has been charged with murder and several other crimes.
