AN 82-year-old motorbike driver has died after a horror crash with a SUV.
Cops and emergency services scrambled to the scene after a blue VW Tiguan SUV and a blue Honda motorcycle collided in Malton, North Yorkshire, around 11.42am on Tuesday.
Sadly, the 82-year-old man who was riding the motorcycle died at the scene
The man's family have been informed and they are receiving specialist support from our officers.
The driver of the Tiguan, a man aged in his 60s, is assisting officers with the investigation.
North Yorkshire Police confirmed he was taken to hospital by ambulance for treatment.
Diversions have been in place so the emergency services could work safety at the scene and to allow for both vehicles to be recovered as part of the collision investigation.
The road reopened just after 9pm after the highways team cleared debris from the carriageway.
We are urging people to come forward if they witnessed or have dashcam footage of the collision itself, or recall seeing either the blue Tiguan or the blue Honda motorcycle prior to the incident.
