Officers are appealing for witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage to come forward following a fatal road traffic collision in North Dorset.
Dorset Police received a report at 12.55pm on Thursday 22 August 2024 of a collision involving a blue Yamaha motorbike and a black Audi A6 on the A357 Cook’s Lane near Spire Hill Farm in the Stalbridge area.
Very sadly, the rider of the motorbike – a man aged in his 20s from the Gillingham area – was pronounced dead at the scene.
Road closures are in place to allow emergency services to safely deal with the incident and carry out an examination of the scene.
Police Sergeant Dave Cotterill, of the traffic unit, said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the motorbike rider who sadly died in this collision.
“I am appealing for any witnesses who saw what happened and have not already spoken to police to please come forward.
“Also, I am keen to speak to any motorists who captured footage of the incident, or the moments leading up to it, on a dashcam.
“Finally, I would like to thank the public for their patience and understanding while the road closures are in place.”
