An e-bike rider has been left hospitalised for more than two months with serious head injuries after a collision in Haringey.

Police rushed to Broad Lane following reports of a collision between a car and an e-bicycle on Tuesday, September 20.

The driver of the Audi stopped at the scene and called the emergency services.

The 28-year-old male rider of the e-bike was taken to hospital with a serious head injury.

He has been in hospital receiving treatment for more than two months since the incident, though his condition is not life-threatening.

Detectives have appealed for information on a driver in a red-coloured hatchback that was near the scene at the time of the collision. They believe this person could have vital information needed to assist the investigation.

Detective Sam Rivers, the investigating officer from the Met’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said:“It has now been 11 weeks since the collision took place and the e-bicycle rider remains in hospital with significant injuries. We are still trying to ascertain exactly what happened and we are continuing to appeal to the public for information.

“We are particularly keen to hear from the driver of a red-coloured hatchback and we have now released an image of that vehicle. I know the quality is not the best, but it should be enough to prompt the driver to come forward.

"They turned right out of Wakefield Road shortly before 21:34hrs on Tuesday, 20 September and we believe they may have witnessed the collision.

"Similarly, if anyone else witnessed this incident or has footage we really need to hear from you. Any information you have, no matter how small you think it is, will be crucial to our investigation.”

There have been no arrests and enquiries continue.
