We’ve a very sad update to bring you this morning.

You may remember that yesterday, we appealed for witnesses and footage following a collision between a Toyota Aygo and a Lexmoto Diablo 125 motorbike on Garstang Road in Claughton on Brock.

We were called to a report of a collision between a Toyota Aygo and a Lexmoto Diablo 125 motorbike on Garstang Road in Claughton on Brock at 2:05pm on April 10. Very sadly, the rider of the motorbike, a 17-year-old boy, later died in hospital. His loved ones are aware and are being supported by specially trained officers.

Sgt. Phil Baxendale, of our Roads Policing Unit said: “First and foremost, my thoughts remain with the loved ones of the rider of the motorbike at this incredibly distressing time.

“We are continuing to appeal for witnesses, and any dashcam or CCTV footage you have of Garstang Road around the time of the collision. If you are able to assist our enquiries, please get in touch.”
