A woman was killed after an Audi that was being chased by police struck a Mercedes van, the police watchdog said.
Kathleen Kirby tragically died after the incident on Bolton Road in Wigan yesterday afternoon (Monday). Police pursued an Audi car that had 'made off' from officers, before the car struck a Mercedes van.
The van then struck Kathleen who was walking on the street, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said. She sadly died after suffering serious injuries.
