Filey: Appeal for witnesses & dashcam footage after woman dies following a collision

We’re appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage following a collision that led to the death of an 85-year-old woman in Filey.

It happened on Station Road at round 9am on Friday 28 February.

The ambulance service initially attended a report that a woman had fallen. She sadly died in hospital the following day.

The woman was wearing a distinctive red coat and walking with the assistance of a walking aid.

The vehicle believed to be involved was a white van.

We are appealing for witnesses and anyone with dashcam footage who may have seen the woman in the time leading up to and being involved in the collision.

If you can help our investigation, please email our Major Collision Investigation Team at [email protected].

Or call 101 and pass information for incident number 12250037457.
