Detectives investigating a fatal road crash in northwest London collision are appealing for a man they believed witnessed the incident to come forward.
A 79-year-old pedestrian was struck by a car on Rayners Lane, Pinner, Harrow, around 1pm on December 19, 2025.
He was taken to hospital with serious injuries but died a few days later.
Met police officers have issued a picture of a man they believe could be a key witness.
Police have said he was not involved in the collision.
Detective Constable Anna Znajkiewicz, leading the investigation, said: “Our thoughts remain with the victim’s family and friends who are still coming to terms with his loss.
“We are continuing our enquiries to establish exactly what happened and we have spoken to a number of people who were in the area at the time.
“However, examination of CCTV has identified a possible witness who was walking outside Buckingham Preparatory School at the time of the collision, and we believe he may have seen what happened.
“We are releasing his image in the hope that he will come forward. If anyone recognises him, we would also ask you contact the Serious Collision Investigation Unit on 0207 960 8044 or by calling 101, quoting CAD 3513/19DEC25. You can also provide information anonymously by contacting Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
