Police appeal after man dies in Northampton collision

Witnesses are being sought after a cyclist died following a road traffic collision on the A4500 dual carriageway in Northampton.

At about 5.45am on Thursday, June 20, the driver of a white VW Golf and the rider of a blue/black bicycle collided on the eastbound carriageway of the road, near to the junction with Weedon Road.

As a result of the collision the man, aged in his 20s, sadly died at the scene.

Officers from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit believe the A4500 would have been busy at this time of day and would like to hear from anyone who may have dash cam footage that captured either the Golf or the bicycle prior to the collision.
