APPEAL | Road traffic collision, Okehampton
We are appealing for witnesses and footage following a head-on two-vehicle collision on New Road, Okehampton.
The incident involving a blue BMW and a red Ford Fiesta took place at around 4pm on Wednesday 17 September.
The driver of the Ford left the scene immediately after the collision, and officers are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen this individual or captured relevant footage.
The BMW driver was taken to hospital for treatment after sustaining minor injuries.
A man in his 30s from the Okehampton area has since been arrested on suspicion of several driving offences, including drink driving, dangerous driving, and driving whilst disqualified. He remains in police custody at this time.
We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who:
- Witnessed the events leading up to or during the collision or its aftermath
- Saw the suspect leaving the vehicle and scene
- May have dashcam, CCTV or mobile phone footage from the area at the time
If you have any information that may assist our enquiries, please contact police our website or by calling 101, quoting log 50250242296
