A man has sadly died following a road traffic collision in Dudley last night (Thursday 26th January).

West Midlands Ambulance Service were called to reports of a collision involving two pedestrians on Tipton Road in Woodsetton at 8.35pm.

Two ambulances, two paramedic officers, the Critical Care Car from The Air Ambulance Service in Strensham, a MERIT trauma doctor and critical care paramedic were sent to the scene.

A West Midlands spokeswoman said: “When ambulance staff arrived, they found two patients, a man and a woman, had been involved in a collision with a car.

“The man was found to be in a critical condition and was already receiving medical assistance from a bystander.

“Ambulance crews worked quickly to provide advanced life support but sadly, despite everyone’s best efforts, it became clear that nothing more could be done to save him, and he was confirmed dead at the scene.

“The woman was treated for serious injuries by ambulance staff before being conveyed on blue lights to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham for further treatment.”
