A64 Re-opens After Horror Smash

Saturday, 20 January 2024 09:38

Two people have been seriously injured in a crash that closed one of North Yorkshire’s busiest roads.

North Yorkshire Police is appealing for witnesses and information about the collision that occurred on the A64 west of Malton, at the bottom of Golden Hill, near Huttons Ambo.

It happened at 11.54pm on Friday night and involved a silver Jaguar and blue Ford Focus.

A head-on collision occurred and both drivers suffered serious injuries.

One driver, a man in his 30s, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of drink driving and is assisting police with the investigation.

The stretch of road was closed until around 2pm on Saturday.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the collision or anyone who recalls seeing the vehicles prior to the collision, to get in touch as soon as possible to assist the investigation.

If you can help, please email Joseph.schramm@Northyorkshire.police.uk or contact North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2, and ask for TC694 Joseph Schramm.

Please quote the North Yorkshire Police reference number 12240011595
