A motorcyclist has tragically lost his life following a collision that involved two motorcycles and a car on the A41 at High Heath near Hinstock yesterday morning.
The incident occurred around 11:15 AM and involved a Harley Davidson TriGlide three-wheeled motorcycle, a Triumph Rocket three-wheeled motorcycle, and a Hyundai i10.
Unfortunately, the rider of the Triumph Rocket was pronounced dead at the scene.
The rider of the Harley Davidson was transported to the hospital with injuries that are not considered life-threatening.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Ambulance Service stated: “Upon arrival, ambulance staff found two patients, one of whom, a man from one of the motorcycles, was in critical condition.
“Paramedics immediately began administering advanced life support; however, despite their best efforts, it was clear that nothing could be done to save him, and he was declared dead at the scene.
“The second man, also a motorcyclist, received treatment for potentially serious injuries, though they are not believed to be life-threatening, before being taken to Royal Stoke University Hospital by land ambulance.
“Fortunately, the car driver did not sustain any injuries in the incident.”
Police are currently investigating the collision and are seeking anyone who was in the vicinity at the time who may have witnessed the incident or has dash-cam footage of either the collision itself or the vehicles minutes leading up to it.
