Witness appeal following fatal road traffic collision

We are appealing for witnesses and information following a fatal road traffic collision in Blackwater.

We were called just after 7pm yesterday (10 January) following reports of a collision between a pedestrian and a blue Maxus E Deliver 9 van on Hawley Road.

The pedestrian, an 88-year-old woman from Blackwater, sadly died. Specialist officers are supporting her family.

Following initial inquiries we are now calling for anyone with information about this incident to come forward.

Were you in the area at the time? Did you see the pedestrian or the van or the incident itself?

We would particularly like to speak to anyone with relevant dash cam, doorbell or CCTV footage.

If you have any information that could assist our investigation, please call 101 with reference number 44230012689.
