A main York road has reopened after a serious accident last night.
Emergency services closed Holgate Road between its junction with Hamilton Drive East up to the traffic lights at Acomb Road/Poppleton Road. Pedestrian access is also closed.
Police were called out shortly before 8pm on Sunday (7 April).
Later in the evening the police’s Forensic Collision Investigation Unit arrived at the scene. They investigate all fatal, potentially fatal or life-changing collisions.
Clearly this is awful, whatever has happened but What about those of us who live there? The police sent me packing back into town in the dark and to be honest they were really rude to me! Surely the police have some duty of care if they are going to displace people from their homes?
