“I would be particularly keen to hear from anybody who was driving in the area and may have dash-cam footage, or who witnessed the incident and have not yet spoken to police.

“Anyone with information should call us on 101 or make a report online, quoting reference number 43220163323.

“Or you can report information completely anonymously by calling the independent charity, Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.”
