Man critically injured after fall from e-scooter in Nottingham
It happened along a busy road
Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a man was critically injured having fallen from an e-scooter along a busy road.
Emergency services were called to Carlton Road, St Ann’s, Nottingham, shortly after 8pm on Thursday night.
The rider of the e-scooter, who is in his 40s, is in a critical condition in hospital.
Police are working to establish what caused the man to fall from the e-scooter.
Detective Constable Liah Lane, of Nottinghamshire Police’s serious collision investigation unit, said:
“This incident happened on a busy road and will have been witnessed by other people.
“If you saw what happened and have yet to get in contact with us, please do not assume that others have already told us what you saw.
“We are working to build up a complete picture of what happened. Whilst we do not believe the e-scooter was involved in a collision with another vehicle, we are keen to review any dashcam footage recorded by passing vehicles around the time of the incident.
“I would also like to thank the members of the public who came to the injured man’s aid and stayed with him until emergency services arrived. This was a distressing incident for everyone involved and they acquitted themselves admirably in a difficult situation.”
