Avon and Somerset Police are appealing for dashcam footage and witnesses after an e-scooter rider was injured last Thursday (31st March 2022).

The rider sustained serious injuries when she collided with a parked car at around 9.30pm on Portway, off Catherine Street, in Avonmouth.

She was taken to hospital but has since been discharged.

Avon and Somerset Police say at this stage it is unclear if any other vehicle was involved.

They're keen to talk to anyone who was in the area at the time.

Police would also like to identify a driver of a small hatchback that passed the primary school at about that time and had an e-scooter travelling behind them.
