"We are also keen to identify the driver of a grey VW Transporter that was directly behind the red Mustang at the traffic lights on the roundabout before heading down the B4380 towards Atcham.

Anyone who witnessed the collision or may have dash-cam footage of it is asked to contact PC Mark Hobden on 07870 219721 or email mark.hobden@westmercia.police.uk quoting incident number 352i of 21 June.
