Elderly woman dies in Herefordshire car crash
Police are appealing for information following a fatal collision in Herefordshire
A woman has died following a single-vehicle crash in Herefordshire last night (21 January).
West Mercia Police are appealing for information following a fatal collision which happened at Upper Hill, Bush Bank.
Emergency crew were called at around 6:50pm when a black Ford Fiesta was travelling towards Upper Hill left the road and collided with a hedge.
The driver of the vehicle, a woman in her 70s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “On arrival crews discovered a car that had collided with a hedge.
“There was one patient, a woman, who had been rescued from the car by bystanders and was receiving basic life support from police colleagues.
“Ambulance staff immediately began administering advanced life support but sadly, despite everyone’s best efforts it became apparent nothing could be done to save the woman and she was confirmed dead at the scene.”
Officers would like to speak to anybody who may have seen the collision or from anybody who has dash cam footage from around the time it happened.
