Motorcyclist Fatally Injured

A man has died after his motorbike is believed to have been in collision with a roadside barrier last night (Sunday).

West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to the A50 in Longton, Stoke on Trent, near to the junction with Edensor Road at 7.25pm and sent two ambulances, two paramedic officers and the Midlands Air Ambulance Critical Care Car to the scene.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “Crews arrived to find one patient, a man, who had come off his motorbike.

“He was found to be in a critical condition and was already receiving CPR from an off-duty nurse.

“Ambulance staff then began administering advanced life support but sadly, despite everybody’s best efforts it became apparent nothing could be done to save the man and he was confirmed dead at the scene.”
