Cyclist and Pedestrian Accident Oakham High Street

Cyclist and Pedestrian Accident Oakham High Street

No photograph of the blood and gore, I left that to the many people who arrived with mobile phone cameras
I think its important record events but some you don't really need so much detail.

I was also fascinated by the large amount of spectators some of whom had brought coffee from Costa.

Around 2pm a cylist collided with a pedestrian on a crossing on Oakham High Street.

One person was taken to hospital by Air Ambulance, the helicopter landed in and departed from Cutts Close.
Many young people filmed its departure. Another person received emergency treatment for some hours in the back of an Ambulance. The high street remain closed until 5.30pm so police accident investigators could carry out their investigations.











PC A.... had no problem posing for this photograph, he is a keen photographer and he is very skilled with Photoshop, if you get a chance to look at his i-phone some very cleverly created and enhanced images.
