Man dies after crash involving van and truck

The A47 goes through the village of East Winch near King's Lynn

A man in his 30s has died after a crash between a van and a truck.

Emergency services were called to the A47 in East Winch, Norfolk, at 13:50 BST on Wednesday after the white Vauxhall Movano van and orange DAF truck collided.

The driver of the van was taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn and transferred to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.

Norfolk Police this morning confirmed the man had died and it renewed appeals for witnesses to come forward.

The single carriageway section of the A47 was closed for more than 14 hours - until 04:30 the next day - as emergency repairs were carried out.

It followed another serious crash in the same area earlier in the month which left a motorcyclist with serious injuries.
