Police are appealing for witnesses and dashboard mounted camera footage after a man died following a collision in Garstang.

Around 4.30pm on July 8 a Nissan Note car, travelling northbound on Castle Lane, left the carriageway and collided with a hedgerow.

The rear seat passenger, a 44-year-old man from Preston, suffered serious head and neck injuries. He was taken to Royal Preston Hospital for treatment but died yesterday (Monday, September 26).

The driver and front seat passenger suffered whiplash injuries.

Police are appealing for information and urging any witnesses to come forward.

Sgt Helen Parkinson, of Lancashire Police’s Tactical Operations, said: “Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends at this very sad and difficult time.

“While this collision did take place some time ago, we are keen to speak to any witnesses, or anyone with dashboard mounted camera footage, which may show what happened.

“Please come forward if you can help us.”

Anyone with information can contact police on 101 or email 1747@lancashire.police.uk quoting log 0993 of July 8.
