Appeal for witnesses after serious collision in Albrighton

West Mercia Police are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage following a collision in Albrighton yesterday, Monday, June 2nd, which left a motorcyclist with serious injuries.

The incident occurred around 5.10 pm on Rushey Lane, involving a Mini and a motorbike. The motorcyclist, a man in his 60s, sustained serious injuries and was transported to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for treatment.
