Tragedy struck in north Cornwall on Friday evening when two cars collided, leaving one teenager dead and six others injured. The fatal crash occurred on a junction between St Tudy and St Breward, prompting a swift response from emergency services.
The incident involved two black Seat Ibizas and took place at around 11:15pm. It wasn't long before authorities were on the scene, responding to reports of the collision. The cars had collided at a junction near the B3266, causing significant damage.
Sadly, a 19-year-old passenger in one of the cars was pronounced dead at the scene. Devon and Cornwall Police have informed his next of kin. Meanwhile, six other individuals were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
In the wake of the tragedy, an 18-year-old man from Bodmin was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and causing death by careless driving while under the influence of alcohol and drugs. He has since been released on bail while further investigations take place.
The road remained closed for 14 hours as authorities conducted their investigation, causing significant disruption for locals. The junction was finally reopened on Saturday, but not before footage showed the aftermath of the crash, with debris scattered across the crossroads.
Police are urging any witnesses who have not yet come forward to do so, as well as those with dashcam footage of the incident. They can provide information through the police website or by calling 101. The Agency also encourages readers to follow them on social media for the latest updates and to sign up for daily push alerts.
