North Yorkshire Police is continuing to appeal for witnesses and information about a serious collision on Leathley Road near Castley Lane.
It happened at 9.20am on Tuesday 14 March 2023 and involved a green 12-reg Mazda car driven by a woman who suffered several fractured and broken bones.
She was taken to hospital by ambulance where she stayed for five days before being allowed to go home to recover.
There were three other vehicles involved in the incident: a white 21-reg Ford Transit, a grey 21-reg Hyundai Ioniq, and a grey 10-reg Skoda Roomster.
The stretch of road was closed for several hours while officers investigated the scene and to allow the vehicles to be recovered.
We’re appealing for witnesses to the collision or anyone who recalls seeing the vehicles involved prior to the collision, to get in touch as soon as possible to assist the investigation.
In particular, we’re appealing for motorists in the area at the time who may have relevant dash-cam footage of the collision itself or of any of the vehicles involved prior to the incident.
If you can help, please email [email protected] or contact North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2, and ask for Megan Smith.
