Since then, Ang had been on life support and never awoke from her coma.

According to her husband, Dennis Loo, she died at about 1.30am.

He told The Malay Mail that she passed away peacefully despite the best efforts of doctors and hospital staff.

Condolences have been pouring in on her Facebook page, where her profile picture was changed to one of her holding hands with Loo.

“In memory of Evelyn Ang Loo, 13041973 – 01032018,” the caption read.

Ang, 44, was one of three runners in the Klang City International Marathon injured in the accident.

On Feb 20, mechanic Teoh Thiam Lim, 28, was charged in the Klang Magistrate’s Court with reckless and dangerous driving that resulted in the runners being hit by his car.

Teoh, who pleaded not guilty, was charged with driving a Proton Iswara in a reckless manner that could endanger others at Batu 2, Jalan Kapar at about 4.30am on Dec 10.

The charge, under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, provides for a maximum jail term of five years and a fine of up to RM15,000 upon conviction.
