A man and a woman have died and a third patient has been airlifted to hospital following a collision between a motorbike and pedestrians this morning.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to Newton Lane, Floodgates, Kington at 10.56am and sent two ambulances, a paramedic officer, a BASICS doctor and the Midlands Air Ambulance from Cosford to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “Ambulance crews arrived on scene to find three patients, two pedestrians and a motorcyclist.
“The pedestrians, a man and a woman, were both found in critical conditions and ambulance staff immediately began administering advanced life support.
“However, despite their best efforts it sadly became apparent nothing could be done to save either patient and they were confirmed dead at the scene.
“The motorcyclist, a man, was treated for potentially serious injuries before being airlifted to Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham.”
