A 30-year-old man from Blackfield was taken to hospital suffering serious injuries.

Officers are investigating the collision and want to speak with any witnesses.

A Hampshire police spokesman said: "Maybe you saw the collision or the maroon Astra in the area in the moments leading up to the collision?

"Do you have a dash cam that would have captured the incident or vehicle before the incident?"
