Police seek driver of black vehicle linked to Great Orme motorcyclist fatal crash
North Wales Police are appealing for the driver of a black car seen near the Great Orme at the time a motorcyclist crashed and died, urging anyone with information to contact investigators.
North Wales Police have issued a new appeal for the driver of a black vehicle, believed to be a Ford Fiesta, that was in the Great Orme area around 22:26 on Thursday night when a motorcyclist on a black motorcycle crashed on Marine Drive and fell into the sea. The rider was recovered but later died despite a multi-agency rescue effort involving the police, HM Coastguard and the RNLI.
"Further to our earlier appeal, we are trying to locate a black vehicle – possibly a Ford Fiesta, that we believe to be in the area of the Great Orme at the time of the collision. The vehicle travelled on Mostyn Street into North Parade then headed up towards the Great Orme at around 22:26hrs and we are urging the driver of that vehicle to come forward as soon as possible," a police spokesperson said.
The police request that anyone who was travelling or walking along Marine Drive between 22:00 and 22:30, or who may have dash-cam footage, contact the Serious Collision Investigation Unit via web-chat, phone (101) quoting reference 26000888717, or email OSSSeriousCollisionInvestigationUnitOfficers@northwales.police.uk.
Sergeant Alun Jones added that any information, however minor, could assist the investigation and that the victim’s family has been notified and the coroner informed.
