Schoolboy, 14, dies after e-scooter he was riding crashed into car as cops plea for CCTV

Published on March 28, 2025 at 04:37 PM

A SCHOOLBOY has died after an e-scooter he was riding crashed into a car.

The electric vehicle with two 14-year-old riders was travelling through a junction in the direction of Southmoor Road, Manchester.

They collided with a car at around 4pm on March 19 before coming to rest on a third vehicle.

One of the boys died from injuries sustained in the crash yesterday morning.

The other boy didn't receive serious or life-threatening injuries.

His family are currently being supported by specialist officers as enquiries continue into the collision.

They have asked for privacy as they continue to grieve their loss.

No arrests have been made and Greater Manchester Police are continuing to ask for information regarding the incident.

Detective Constable Steven Pennington, from GMP's Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “A young boy has tragically lost his life following this collision and our condolences are with his family and friends.

“Our work into the circumstances of the collision is still ongoing and we continue to ask anyone with relevant information to please get in touch with us as we continue our work.”

Anyone who witnessed the incident or has any CCTV, dashcam, or doorbell footage is asked to get in touch with officers.

This can be done by contacting police via 101 or gmp.police.uk, quoting log 2263 of 19/03/25.

Alternatively, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
