Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

A MAN in his 60s has died following a road traffic collision in Tilehurst.

The incident happened just after 8pm on Wednesday, March 16, at Sulham Hill, and involved the man and a single vehicle.

Emergency services attended, but were unable to save the 62-year-old, who lived locally.

Thames Valley Police said that his family are being supported by specially trained officers.

Now the force is appealing for witnesses to come forward, with a particularly appeal to anyone who saw a large, blue estate car in the area.

Senior Investigating Officer Sergeant Gary Doughty of the Joint Operations Roads Policing Unit, said: “We are in the very early stages of investigating this tragic incident which has seen a local man lose his life as a result of this collision.

“We have spoken to a number of witnesses and are in the process of obtaining information from them.

“However, if you were at the scene and have not yet given details to police, I would ask that you please get in touch with us, either online or by calling 101, quoting reference number 43220115995.”

He added: “Additionally, if anybody saw a large blue estate car in the area or has any dash-cam footage that might assist our investigation, please do contact Thames Valley Police.

“At this early stage, we do not believe any other vehicle was involved and are not currently contemplating any arrests.”
