Officers are appealing for information after a man was seriously injured in a two-vehicle collision in North Tyneside.
Shortly before 4.30pm on Monday, police received a report of a collision between a black and brown Harley Davidson motorcycle and a brown Mercedes Sprinter van, on Stephenson Street, near the Hadrian Road junction with Potter Street, in Wallsend.
Emergency services attended, where the rider of the Harley Davidson – a man in his 30s – was found to have sustained serious injuries.
He was taken to hospital where he remains in a critical condition.
The driver of the Mercedes van remained at the scene to assist with enquiries.
A section of the road was closed to allow for scene investigation and recovery of the vehicles involved but has since reopened.
A number of enquiries have since been carried out by Northumbria Police’s Road Policing Unit.
Today (Tuesday) they’re asking for anyone who was in the area at the time and witnessed what has happened to come forward.
Officers are particularly keen to speak to anyone who may have dashcam or CCTV footage of the moments leading up to the incident.
Witnesses can send Northumbria Police a direct message on social media or use the live chat or report forms on the force’s website.
Dashcam footage can also be submitted via the portal on the force’s website: https://www.northumbria.police.uk/police-forces/northumbria-police/areas/campaigns/campaigns/submit-your-dashcam-footage/
Those that are unable to contact the force in those ways, can call 101.
