Police appeal for witnesses following serious A6 collision

Bedfordshire Police is appealing for witnesses after a man was left with serious injuries, following a collision on the A6 between Streatley and Barton-Le-clay on Saturday (6 April).

Shortly before 11am, emergency services were called to reports of a collision involving a vehicle and a cyclist in Luton Road, A6, a short distance from the Barton-Le-Clay slip road.

The cyclist, a man in his 60s, was taken to hospital where he remains in a serious condition.

Another man in his 60s was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and being over the prescribed limit. He has since been released under investigation pending further enquiries.

Sergeant James Carmichael from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Roads Policing Unit said: “We are urging anyone who witnessed this incident or the events leading up to it to please get in touch.

”We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may have been travelling in the area at the time of the incident and captured any footage on a dashcam.”
