Appeal following fatal collision in Pendleton

Saturday, June 15, 2024

We are appealing for information and footage following a fatal collision in Pendleton.

We were called to Whalley Road at 2.45pm yesterday (14th June) to reports a blue Toyota C-HR had collided with a pedestrian.

The pedestrian, a local man in his 70s, sadly died at the scene.  Nobody in the Toyota was injured.

DS Helen Parkinson, from our Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “This collision has resulted in a man losing his life and my thoughts are with his loved ones at this extremely distressing time.

“As part of our ongoing enquiries we are asking for any witnesses or anyone with CCTV, mobile phone or dashcam footage which would assist our investigation to come forward. We would also like to hear from anyone who saw or has footage of a blue Toyota C-HR in Clitheroe prior to the collision.”
