A 47-year-old man has died in Northolt after his car was hit by another vehicle.

The collision took place shortly after 4:40am this Monday morning (27 January) after the victim’s Ford Focus was hit by a BMW in Ruislip Road.

Shortly before the car had come to the attention of a police patrol car with officers believing that it was speeding.

The driver and the passenger in the BMW, both men aged 25, were arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving before being taken to hospital in a condition described as not life-threatening. The passenger was later released with no further action to be taken but the driver remains in custody.

The dead man’s next of kin have been informed and are receiving support.

The investigation is being led by detectives from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit.

They would like to hear from anyone in the area who might have caught dash cam footage of the incident, or in the time leading up to it.
