Police appeal for witnesses after fatal car crash

A man in his 60s died after being hit by a car near the junction of City Road and Sandon Road in Birmingham

Police are appealing for information from the public following a fatal crash that killed a man in his 60s.

The victim was hit by a car shortly after 13:00 GMT on 29 October in Birmingham, and died from his injuries in hospital a short while later.

The crash took place near the junction of City Road and Sandon Road, near Bearwood, with the driver remaining at the scene.

A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said they were working to establish the circumstances of the collision and were keen to hear from anyone who was in the area and may have information.

Det Sgt Paul Hughes said: "Our thoughts are with the family of the man who died at what is a desperately sad time.

"We know there will have been other drivers in the area possibly with dashcam footage and we would like to see that and speak with those drivers.

"The driver of the car involved remained at the scene, so we now want to speak to anyone else who might have seen what happened."
