Appeal for witnesses after serious collision in Newport

We are appealing for witnesses after a serious collision in Newport yesterday, 28 July.

We were called to Shide Road, Newport, at 2.23am after a silver Mercedes A180 was in collision with a bollard and two brick walls.

The driver, a 34-year-old man from Newport, has been taken to Southampton General Hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Officers are investigating the exact cause of the collision, and are keen to speak with anyone who has information.

Were you in the area at the time? Perhaps you saw the vehicle earlier on, or have dash-cam footage?

Anyone with information is asked to phone 101 with the reference 44200282043.
