A woman died following a collision at Frosts Willington Garden Centre in Bedfordshire last Sunday.

The incident occurred around 2:30 PM on June 9 in the car park of the garden centre on Sandy Road, Willington. The 59-year-old woman from Bedford was struck by a grey Renault Captur and suffered serious injuries after being trapped beneath the vehicle. She was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge but later died from her injuries.

The car also collided with two other vehicles.

Detective Sergeant Craig Wheeler from Bedfordshire Police’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit stated, "It was a busy Sunday afternoon at the garden centre, and we are hopeful that this appeal may yield more information. We would particularly like to hear from anyone who left before the police arrived."

Police are asking witnesses to contact them with any information about the incident.
