Woman dies after crash between car and van in Cleveleys
The 89-year-old passed away after being taken to hospital
A woman has died following a collision in Cleveleys yesterday (Monday, May 10th).
It happened at around 11:15am when a Nissan Micra travelling southbound on the A585 Amounderness Way has turned right to enter Anchorsholme Lane and collided with a Ford Transit van.
As a result, the Transit van travelled off the road, clipping a pedestrian and stopping in some trees.
The driver of the Nissan Micra, an 89-year-old local woman, was taken to Royal Preston Hospital but sadly passed away last night.
The pedestrian, a 67-year-old woman from Fleetwood, suffered minor injuries.
Officers are asking witnesses to come forward. Sgt Laura Kendall said: "Firstly, my thoughts are with the family of the woman who died at this incredibly sad and distressing time.
"We need anyone who was in the area and saw what happened to speak to us as you could have information that may assist our investigation.
"Similarly, if you have any dash cam footage that you think could help, please get in touch."
