OFFICERS investigating a fatal crash which happened about midnight on Thursday (January 8) in Lickey want to speak to two potential witnesses who were in the area at the time but have not come forward.
The first was a cyclist who was riding along Rose Hill towards Cofton Hackett from Monument Lane – that was just before the incident happened.
Another witness being sought is the driver of a car which was travelling in the same direction as the car involved in the collision.
The incident happened when the vehicle containing three people went down an embankment, hit a tree and burst into flames.
The front seat passenger – a man in his 30s – was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver, who was in his 20s, and the back seat passenver, a man in his 30s, sustained serious injuries.
They were cut free by firefighters and were taken to Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Any witnesses to the collision or anyone with any information should call police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
