Police are appealing for dashcam footage and witnesses after a man died in a road traffic collision (RTC) near Llangollen.

North Wales Police were called to the incident 6.38pm last night (Saturday 2nd December) by colleagues at the Welsh Ambulance Service after reports of a RTC involving a car and a motorbike on the A539 near the Sun Trevor.

Officers and Roads Crime Unit colleagues attended alongside paramedics, but sadly the motorcyclist passed away.

The road was closed until approximately 2.20am this morning.

The man’s next of kin and the local Coroner’s Office have been informed.

PC Jo Roberts of the Roads Crime Unit said: “We are appealing for any witnesses, especially those with dashcam to contact us either via our live webchat or on 101.

“We are particularly keen to speak to the driver of a white panel van, who may have witnessed the incident.”

Anyone in the area at the time, who could assist with the investigation should get in touch quoting reference A190186.
