POLICE are continuing to appeal for information after a collision in Saddleworth last month which left a young man still fighting for his life.

At 5.40pm on March 7, a grey VW Polo crashed with two other vehicles near the Pennine Way car park at Stanedge Cutting .

The Polo was travelling towards Huddersfield behind a black Mercedes C220. A blue Vauxhall Astra also involved was coming towards them.

The driver of the VW Polo, a 25-year-old man, was taken to hospital by air ambulance. He remains in a serious condition.

Police Constable Sandra Turnball said: “The area is well-used by walkers and dog walkers and so I am making a further appeal to those people who may have witnessed the collision or who saw any of the vehicles involved in the moments before to come forward. Information to Serious Collision Investigation Unit on 0161-856 4741.
