Police were called at 4.10pm on Saturday, June 24 to the roundabout near Kestrel Park in Skelmersdale to reports a car had been involved in a crash with a pedestrian. The pedestrian, a man in his 70s, suffered a serious head injury and numerous fractures.

Sgt Chris Evans, of the Roads Policing Unit, said: “We are appealing for witnesses and to anyone who has dashcam footage from the area. This would help us in our investigation, to establish the full circumstances, both before and during the collision.”

Anyone with information or footage is asked to contact 101 – quoting log 0957 of June 24, 2023
