Police investigating a serious collision on the A267 at Cross in Hand are urging anyone with information to come forward.

The incident involving a sewage tanker travelling northbound, and a black Ford Focus travelling southbound, occurred close to the junction with Mayfield Flat around 7am on Tuesday 1 October.

The four occupants of the car were seriously injured; the single occupant of the lorry was uninjured.

The road is likely to remain closed in both directions for several hours to allow for recovery and forensic examination, and we’d like to thank the public for their patience and understanding. Diversion signs are in place.

In the meantime, officers are urging anyone who saw what happened to email [email protected] quoting Operation Hales.

In particular, police are keen to hear from anyone who drove past but did not stop at the scene, who may have dash cam or mobile footage.
