Teenage scooter rider seriously injured following Morecambe collision

A teenage scooter rider suffered serious injuries following a collision with a car in Morecambe over the weekend.

Police are investigating the incident, which happened shortly before 11.15pm on Saturday (March 15),  and involved a petrol scooter and a red Toyota Yaris at the junction of Albert Road and Chatsworth Road.

The scooter rider, a local boy in his teens, suffered serious injuries and was taken to hospital where he remains. The driver of the Yaris, which stopped at the scene, was uninjured.

Sgt Josh Begbie, of the Road Policing Unit, said: “This collision has left a young man with some significant injuries, and I would appeal to anyone who saw what happened, or who saw the scooter in the lead up to the collision to get in touch. I would also be keen to hear from anyone who might have any CCTV, dashcam, Ring doorbell or mobile footage.”
