Man arrested after collision in West Derby

A man was arrested after a driver failed to stop following a collision with another car in West Derby in the early hours of today (Saturday 3 August).

Just after 1.10am, a blue Subaru Legacy was in collision with a grey VW Golf at the junction of Muirhead Avenue and Queens Drive. The VW Golf was then in collision with a tree, causing slight injuries to the driver and a passenger.

The Subaru was driven away from the scene along Queens Drive, and after an officer on patrol spotted the damage to the vehicle, he indicated for the driver to pull over.

The driver stopped and made off on foot from the vehicle, but following a brief foot pursuit he was detained nearby.

A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of drink driving and failing to stop after a collision. He has been taken to a police station to be interviewed.

Anyone who witnessed any part of the incident, or captured dash cam, is asked to DM @MerPolCC or call Crimestoppers on 08000 555 111.
