“Initial enquiries indicate that a number of vehicles were in the area at the time and I believe this may have been seen by members of the public or dash cams may have captured the scene. I am appealing directly to anyone who may have seen anything and has not yet spoken to my team to please get in touch.
“The motorcycle involved was a Suzuki SV650 and was a very distinctive yellow colour, which stood out to road users. Furthermore, I would also like to ask anyone who was in the area at the time and has a dash cam fitted to their vehicle to check it as a matter of urgency.
“These devices can often collect vital evidence without the driver of the vehicle being aware of it. Any help we receive, no matter how small, could help us in our investigation.”
