Young man fighting for life after city centre crash

A young man is fighting for his life after a crash in the centre of Swansea. Police are investigating the crash which happened at around 9.35pm on Friday at the bottom of Wind Street, on Victoria Road, also known as Quay Parade.

A South Wales Police spokesperson said: "The collision involved a motorcycle and a pedestrian. The driver of the motorcycle, a 23-year-old man, was taken to hospital with minor injuries and was later arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving. The pedestrian, a 20-year-old man, was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries."

Detective Sergeant Lee Christer said: “We would like to thank the local community for their patience while emergency services responded. The road has reopened. We are aware a number of motorcycles were travelling together along Mumbles Road prior to the collision. We would like to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the collision or who may have any dash-cam footage of the incident or witnessed the group of motorcyclists prior to the collision."
