Officers from Staffordshire and West Midlands Serious Collision Investigation Unit are appealing for information following the death of a 67-year-old man.

Keith Love, from Stoke-on-Trent, sadly passed away on Saturday 30 October, following a road traffic collision on Park Hall Road, Stoke-on-Trent, on Thursday 21 October.

A silver Peugeot 206 and a silver VW Golf collided at 9:50am, where two people were trapped in their vehicles.

Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service attended the incident to extract both occupants, who were then treated by West Midlands Ambulance Service and transported to Royal Stoke University Hospital.

Another man remains in hospital.
