Police seek crucial witnesses after motorcyclist, 70, killed in crash in Wilmslow

Police have appealed for two crucial witness to come forward after a 70-year-old motorcyclist died in a crash.

The accident happened at a busy junction in Wilmslow.

The man died at the scene after his black Scout Bobber motorcycle was in collision with a silver Vauxhall Astra at about 9.35pm on Monday (July 26th) at the junction of Manchester Road and Dean Row Road.

His next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers.

A 35-year-old woman from Manchester has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

She has since been released under investigation pending further enquiries.

Police are now appealing to the driver of a small silver car who was driving in front of the motorcycle and the driver of a black 4x4 type vehicle who was travelling behind.

It is believed that they may have seen the Vauxhall Astra or motorcycle before the collision.
