We are appealing for any witnesses or anyone who may have CCTV or dashcam footage to come forward following a road traffic collision in Barnsley which has sadly turned fatal.

Around 9pm yesterday (Monday 8 September), we were called to reports of a collision on Park Road, at the junction with Day Street. It is reported that a silver Kia Rio and a green Yamaha motorcycle were involved.

Despite best efforts of medical personal, the driver of the motorcycle, a 37-year-old man, sadly died at the scene as a result of his injuries. The driver of the Kia stayed at the scene and is cooperating with our officers.

We are now asking for anyone who may have been in the area at the time, or may have seen the two vehicles prior to the collision, to come forward. We are also asking for anyone who may have CCTV or dashcam footage to come forward, as it may help our investigation.
