New information has come to light about a fatal collision near Welshpool and officers are keen to speak to a key witness.

Three vehicles – a blue Ford Fusion, a black Vauxhall Astra and a Morrisons lorry, collided on the A483 in Arddleen, at around 4.30pm on Saturday, August 17.

Sadly, the 77-year-old driver of the blue Ford Fusion died at the scene. Several casualties were taken to hospital at the time and have since been released.

Information from witnesses suggests a black vehicle, possibly a 4x4, was travelling northbound away from Welshpool, and swerved to avoid the collision. Officers are keen to speak to the driver.

If you are the driver who swerved, please contact the Serious Collision Investigation Unit at Dyfed-Powys Police. Anyone who was travelling along this road at the time of the collision, and has dashcam footage, or saw the collision or the vehicles involved, is also asked to contact them.
