Ingoldmells: Appeal after man dies following collision with car

Update 3.55pm, 4 September

We are refreshing our appeal for anyone we have not yet spoken with about a fatal collision on 12 August in Ingoldmells to come forward.

Our investigation is continuing as we piece together the details of what happened, and we are particularly keen to speak with a person who may have been walking two dogs, one large and one small, along Anchor Lane at around 12.15pm to 12.30pm that day.

Anyone else who might have seen the incident, or a blue Mercedes-Benz E350 in the time leading up to the collision, is asked to come forward.

Any information you have, no matter how small you think it is could prove vital to our investigation. We would rather you tell us and allow us to decide how important it might be, than think that what you may know isn’t worth mentioning.

Please call DC Caroline Pendell on 01522 212316 or email [email protected] quoting Incident 204 of 12 August.

Alternatively, you can contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.
