Appeal for witnesses to serious injury road traffic collision – Calcot, Berkshire

Thames Valley Police is appealing for witnesses to a road traffic collision in Calcot, Berkshire, yesterday (13/9).

A black Range Rover Evoque and a pedestrian were involved in the collision on Royal Avenue at 3.45pm.

The pedestrian, a three-year-old boy, suffered a serious head injury. He was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for treatment, where he remains.

A 31-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of driving without due care and attention and driving whilst over a specified controlled drug limit. She has been released on police bail.

Investigating officer PC Martin Danks, of the Joint Operations Roads Policing Unit, said: “I am appealing for any witnesses to this collision, whereby a young boy has sustained serious injuries, to please come forward.

“It is believed several people were in the area at the time of the collision and I ask that anyone who has not already provided a statement to police regarding what they saw contact us if they feel they have information that will assist my investigation.

“I am also looking for any dash-cam, video doorbell or CCTV footage of the area or of a black Range Rover Evoque being driven on Royal Avenue just prior to the collision. You can upload footage and send it to us via this site.

“Get in touch by calling the 24-hour non-emergency number 101 or by making a report on our website, quoting reference number 43230411234.”
