Elderly man dies after car hits bollard in Sutton Park

Police are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage after a man died after a car collided with a bollard in Sutton Park last week.

Officers were called to reports of a white Vauxhall Corsa on a bollard in a car park access road off Park Road at around 12.50pm on Wednesday (September 9).

The driver, in his 60s, was treated by paramedics but sadly was pronounced dead at the scene.

It is understood he may have suffered a medical episode and officers from the West Midlands Police serious collision investigation unit are currently working to establish exactly what happened.

Officers are appealing for anyone who saw the driver before he got into the Corsa or the car colliding with the bollard to get in touch.

Any witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage is asked to contact WMP via Live Chat, or call 101, quoting log 1826 of 9 September.
