"We are particularly keen to speak to a male who we believe provided assistance at the scene and who left before the arrival of police.

"We are also renewing our appeal for drivers who have dashcams fitted in their cars or motorcyclists with helmet cameras, and who would have been in the Kingsway area around the time the collision occurred, to contact police quoting reference 1003 26/12/19.”
