Appeal for information after fatal collision on A421.

Bedfordshire Police is appealing for witnesses following a fatal single-vehicle collision on the A421 on Friday evening (3 October).

Emergency services were called just after 5pm to reports of a crash involving a grey Mercedes on the eastbound carriageway, just before the Shortstown and A600 junction.

The driver, a man in his 60s, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Sergeant David McIlwhan from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Road Policing Unit said:

“First and foremost, our thoughts are with the family and friends of the man who died at this tragic time. We are aware that a number of people may have witnessed the incident or have dash cam footage, and we are asking them to get in touch as soon as possible as this may assist us with our investigation.”

Anyone with information or footage is urged to contact police via the force’s online reporting tool or by calling 101, quoting reference 406 of 3 October.
