We have begun an independent investigation into the actions of the police prior to a collision in Stalybridge in which, sadly, the 16-year-old driver of a car has died and another 16-year-old was seriously injured.

We were notified by Greater Manchester Police (GMP) that at around 6.30pm on Tuesday 3 November in Wakefield Road that a police vehicle had followed a car and shortly afterwards found it had crashed near the junction with Printworks Road.

Our investigators are attending the scene of the collision and the post-incident procedures.

Our thoughts are with the families of the two 16-year-olds and all of those affected.
