90-year-old woman killed after head on collision in Monks Risborough

At around 3.50pm on Monday (29/6) there was a head on collision between two vehicles in Longdown Hill, in Cadsden.

A blue Citroen C3 and a black BMW X3 had collided with each other.

A passenger in the Citroen C3, a woman in her nineties, sustained life threatening injuries and was taken to hospital where she sadly died. Her next of kin have been informed.

The driver of the Citroen sustained minor injuries and did not require hospital treatment. The driver of the BMW was not injured.

Thames Valley Police are now looking for anybody in the area who may have seen anything.

Investigating officer, PC Kate Bishop, of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “I am appealing for witnesses to this tragic incident following which a woman aged in her nineties sadly died.

“I would appeal to any other motorists who were using the road in Longdown Hill in Cadsden at around this time on Monday, who may have seen this collision take place.

“Shortly following the collision, a man driving a dark coloured car stopped at the scene, but was no longer present on police arrival. We believe that this person could be an important witness and would like him to make contact with police.

“I would also ask that anyone with a dash-cam fitted to their vehicles reviews the footage in case anything significant was caught on it.

“Anyone with information should call Thames Valley Police on 101, quoting reference number 43200195501.

“You can also make a report online or an anonymous report to independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
