Two men, including one from the Chichester area, have died following a collision involving two cars in Cornwall.

The crash, which involved a Ford Fiesta and a BMW, happened on the A3083 at Culdrose, near Helston, at just before 9.10pm on Wednesday (December 7th).

The man from Chichester was a passenger in the car, with the driver being a man from the Helston area. Both were in their 20s.

Devon and Cornwall Police said both were pronounced dead at the scene.

The families of both have been made aware.

The driver of the BMW sustained a suspected broken wrist and was taken to hospital.

Officers are appealing for witnesses or dashcam footage.

In particular, they would like to speak to the occupants of a white van - possibly a Ford Transit Connect or Custom - travelling in the general direction of Helston at the time of the collision.

The occupants are sought as potential witnesses.
