Detectives are investigating a serious collision in Redmile – in the Vale of Belvoir – and are asking for two key witnesses to come forward.

At around 1.20 pm yesterday (Friday 2 June) emergency services were called to the junction of Belvoir Road and Long Lane following a report a blue Toyota Yaris collided with a grey Toyota Hilux.

The three occupants of the Yaris – all men in their 20s – were taken to hospital. One man, who was a passenger in the car, remains in a life-threatening condition. The injuries sustained by the other two occupants were not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.

A 22-year-old man from Surrey has been arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving and remains in custody.

“However, they left prior to the police arriving. I’m particularly keen to speak to them as they may have key information or footage that could help my investigation.

“I’m also appealing for anyone else who was in the area at the time the collision occurred to come forward. If you saw what happened, have footage or saw either vehicle prior to the collision occurring, then please get in touch.”

If you were a witness or have any information call Leicestershire Police on 101 quoting reference 23*336963.
