Two arrests made following serious collision in Wisbech

Two people have been arrested following a collision which left a man with serious injuries in Wisbech last night (Sunday 22 May).

We were called at 4.30pm reporting a collision between a gold Nissan Terrano and a silver Peugeot 307 in Churchill Road.

The driver of the Peugeot, a man in his 60s, suffered serious injuries and was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge by helicopter, where he remains in a stable condition.

Two occupants of the Nissan, a 28-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy fled the scene on foot but were arrested later in the evening on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.

Both have been released under investigation while we carry out further enquiries.

Anyone with information about the collision, or who saw either of the vehicles in the moments leading up to it, should make a report online or via webchat quoting incident 341 of 22 May. Those without internet access should call 101.
