POLICE investigating a fatal crash in Quinton on New Year’s Eve are appealing for a key witness to come forward.

A 43-year-old man was run over just before 8pm on Saturday, December 31 at the junction of Hagley Road West and Wolverhampton Road,.

A number of witnesses have already been spoken to, however, one key witness remains outstanding.

Sergeant Paul Hughes said: “This witness was a woman driving a car that was waiting to turn right from Hagley Road West into Wolverhampton Road South.

"I know she did stop and speak to other witnesses at the time, however she was unable to stay."

He added: “This woman potentially has information that is significant to our investigation.

"I would like to emphasise that she has nothing to do with the collision and I would appeal to her to contact either myself or a member of my team.”
