Investigation launched after serious collision in Tadworth

Surrey Police has launched an investigation after a serious collision in Tadworth earlier this morning (Friday, 20 January).

The single-vehicle collision, involving a BMW, took place at around 3:45am on the A217 Brighton Road between the Reigate Road in Burgh Heath and the Tadworth Roundabout.

 

One person has been taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries. Their next of kin have been informed. Three other people received minor injuries.

 

Three people have been arrested on suspicion of a number of driving related offences, including aggravated taking a vehicle without consent.
