Witness appeal after fatal Poulton collision

    Police are appealing for a potential witness to come forward after a fatal collision last week in Poulton-le-Fylde.

    Michael Downing, 33, from Fleetwood, was driving a Vauxhall Corsa on Blackpool Road when it collided with a parked Range Rover Evoque, at approximately 12.15am on Wednesday, February 28th.

    He was taken to hospital but died later.

    Officers investigating the collision are continuing to appeal for witnesses and for dash cam and CCTV footage from Blackpool Road around the time of the collision.

    In particular they want to hear from the driver of a white car, possibly a Nissan Qashqai or similar, which was in the area at the time of the collision as they may have information which could assist.

    Please contact 101, quoting log 0016 of 28th February 2024, or email SCIU@lancashire.police.uk.
