Man who died in crash in Taunton named by police
It happened on the A38 in the early hours of Monday morning
The man who died following a collision in Taunton earlier this week has been named.
While formal identification has yet to take place, officers believe the deceased to be 68-year-old Barry Sellick.
Avon and Somerset Police say they have updated Barry’s family and their "thoughts remain with them during this difficult time". They are currently being offered support from a specialist family liaison officer.
Barry died following a collision on the A38 Wellington New Road just before 1am on Monday 13th January.
Officers arrested a man in his 60s in Cornwall on Monday afternoon on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
Following a number of enquiries, including reviewing CCTV and dashcam footage, the man was released without charge and without further action.
As no offences were identified, officers are now preparing a file on behalf of the coroner.
