We are appealing for witnesses, information and dash-cam footage following a serious collision in Sheffield.

We were called to Lound Side in Chapeltown at 6.10pm on Wednesday (4 December) to reports of a collision between an electric car and pedestrians. 

It is reported that a grey Polestar was travelling along Sussex Road when it turned right onto Lound Side and was in collision with two pedestrians as they crossed the street. 

One pedestrian, a 68-year-old woman, was taken to hospital with serious injuries which are currently being described as life-threatening. A six-year-old boy was also taken to hospital with serious injuries which are not considered to be life-threatening or life-changing at this time. 

The driver remained at the scene and is assisting us with enquiries. We would now like to speak to anyone who saw what happened. We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who has relevant dash-cam footage of the collision itself or the Polestar being driven in the lead up to it. 

If you think you can help, report to us online by following this link (add link) or by calling 101. Please quote incident number 769 of 4 December 2024 when you get in touch.
