They add that enquiries are ongoing and no arrests have been made.

"We are continuing our enquiries and hopeful that there were witnesses who may have information about the collision that could prove a great help with our investigation.

"We are particularly keen to speak to people who may have dash-cam or CCTV footage in the vicinity of Birch Lane in the lead up or directly after the incident."
