In the wake of a serious collision on David Lane, Nottinghamshire Police are appealing to the public for witnesses or any information that might shed light on the incident. The incident occurred shortly after 13.30 BST yesterday, in the vicinity between the tram line and the New Generation Church.
The focal point of this incident was a red moped that had attracted the attention of the police due to its failure to stop. The moped was heading in the direction of an alleyway on David Lane, adjacent to the tram stop when an unfortunate event transpired. The rider of the moped, a 31-year-old man, fell from the vehicle, sustaining serious injuries in the process. He was swiftly transported to a nearby hospital for medical attention.
What adds a layer of complexity to this incident is the fact that the tram line barriers were down at the time of the collision, and a tram was stationed at the tram stop. The circumstances surrounding the incident are, therefore, of significant interest to investigators.
Local law enforcement officers are keen to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the collision or possesses dash-cam footage that might aid in reconstructing the events leading up to the incident. Your cooperation in this matter could play a vital role in helping authorities understand the sequence of events.
To provide information or make a report related to this incident, please reach out to the authorities at 101, quoting incident number 391 of 16 September.
In response to the circumstances surrounding this incident, a referral has been made to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), ensuring a comprehensive and impartial examination of the case.
