An investigation was launched after a van ploughed into pedestrians seriously injuring a man in his 20s
Police investigating an attempted murder in Poulton are appealing for the publics help.
In a further appeal made on Tuesday, Lancashire Police said:
“You may remember us asking for your help after a van collided with two pedestrians on Breck Road in Poulton, and we have a new image to share with you.
We’re appealing for anyone who saw or has dashcam footage of the grey Ford Transit van, with a distinctive orange logo on, in the hours prior to the collision.
We believe the van may have travelled to the Bloomfield and Talbot wards area of Blackpool and to the Breck Road area of Poulton. We are asking anyone with dashcam or CCTV footage of the van between 11pm on Saturday 15th, and 1am on Sunday 16th to come forward. We know that the image isn’t of the highest quality, and that the van appears darker in colour than described on this still, but we are hoping that you may recognise it on your footage.
As a reminder: We were called at 12:50am on Sunday (16th February) to a report of a collision between a Ford Transit van and the two pedestrians on Breck Road.
A man in his 20s was taken to hospital with serious injuries for treatment.
Three men: two from Great Eccleston aged 32 and 23, and one, aged 24 from Blackpool were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. They have been bailed whilst our enquiries continue.
This is being treated as an isolated incident, and there is no wider threat to the public.
If you do have any footage, or any information, no matter how insignificant you may think it to be, please do the responsible thing and get in touch with us.
You can contact us on 101 quoting log 0063 of 16th February.”
