Re-appeal for witnesses after fatal Dawley Collision

Police are continuing to investigate the collision on Springhill Road and have issued a further appeal to try to trace witnesses in-particular a lorry driver.

The collision happened at about 9.50am on Thursday 3 November and involved a red Ford Fiesta and a blue Nissan Almera on Springhill Road, near the junction with Station Road. An 89-year-old man who was driving the Fiesta suffered serious injuries and has since died.

Officers investigating the collision are still trying to trace the driver of a white lorry which was in the area at the time and might have witnessed it.

They would also like to hear from any other road users who witnessed the collision or either of the vehicles, and the manner in which they were being driven, before it occurred.

Anyone with information is asked to call West Mercia Police on 101 quoting incident 152S of 3 November.
