Police are appealing for witnesses after a driver died following a two-car crash on the A5 near Lutterworth yesterday.

The woman aged in her 50s was driving a Peugeot 308 which was involved in collision with a Mini Countryman, on the northbound carriageway between the A426 and A4303 roundabouts at 10.22am.

She was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, but sadly died a short time later.

The driver of the other car is being treated for injuries not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.

An investigation into the collision is now underway and officers are looking to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident or may have dash cam footage.

PC Adam Wilson, from the force’s Serious Collison Investigation Unit, said: “We are looking to speak to anyone who was travelling along that stretch of the A5 and either saw the collision or the cars before the incident took place.

“Anyone with dash cam is also asked to make contact so we can check if you have captured anything which may help with our investigation.”
