Wiltshire Police are appealing for the public’s help in tracing the driver of a car involved in a fatal crash near Marlborough last night.
The single-vehicle road traffic collision happened shortly after 9pm yesterday (Saturday 18 August 2018) on the B4192 near Toll Cottage, Preston, near Ramsbury.
It involved a silver Ford Galaxy which left the road and rolled several times before coming to rest on the nearside verge.
The passenger, a 41-year-old man from the Thatcham area, was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
We are now trying to find the driver of the vehicle, a man who left the scene before police arrived.
A full investigation is underway to establish the cause of the crash and locate the driver.
The road was closed for around nine hours and reopened shortly before 6am.
Did you see the vehicle prior to the collision? Did you see a man fleeing the scene or do you know who the driver is?
Police are appealing for anyone with information to call Wiltshire Police on 101, quoting log 360 of yesterday. Alternatively you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
