Appeal following fatal collision in Blackburn

Friday, May 24, 2024

We are appealing for witnesses and footage following a fatal collision in Blackburn.

We were called to the first floor of Morisons carpark at 2.28pm today (24th May) following reports a black Honda Jazz car had collided with a pedestrian.

Emergency services have attended and found a woman in her 60s with a number of serious injuries. She was sadly pronounced dead at the scene. Our thoughts are with her loved ones at this incredibly distressing time.

An area of the carpark has been closed off.

We are aware of people at the scene filming the aftermath of the collision on their mobile phones. We would ask that they do not circulate that footage as it would be incredibly upsetting for the woman’s loved ones.

Any witnesses or anyone with footage which captures the collision is asked to email [email protected] or call 101. Quote log 757 of 24th May 2024.
