We’re appealing for information following a fatal road traffic collision in Bebington this afternoon (Wednesday, 2 December).
Shortly before 12.45pm, officers were called to Broadway at its junction with Kings Road following reports of a collision involving a red Honda Jazz and a pedestrian.
Emergency services attended and the pedestrian, a man believed to be in his 70s, was taken to hospital where he was sadly pronounced dead a short time later.

“If you were in the area of Broadway and Kings Road and witnessed the collision, or have any CCTV or dashcam footage, please let us know as it may assist our enquiries.”
