The police have issued an appeal for witnesses and information after a car failed to stop at
the scene of a crash in which a 72-year-old man came off his motorbike.
It happened just after 8pm on Wednesday 23 2014 in Lower Stone Close,
Frampton Cotterell. A motorcyclist had to swerve to avoid a car coming towards him, coming off his
motorbike. Thankfully the gentleman was not injured, but the car hit his
motorbike, causing damage.
The incident was reported to police the following day, Thursday 24 July, when
officers were alerted by the fire service to a similar car which had been found
burnt out in Box Hedge Lane, Coalpit Heath.
The police would be very interested to hear from anyone who saw either
of the vehicles involved in the collision – a silver Volvo and a black and
orange Triumph Trident – in the area around the time of the crash or who may
have seen a vehicle being abandoned and set alight.
If you have information, contact the police online or by
calling 101 quoting collision report reference 2014/5019. Officers have carried out door-to-door enquiries in the
surrounding area and reviewed local CCTV.
