Two men have died following a crash in Goostrey.

Emergency services were called to Station Road at 3.03pm on Tuesday, November 3, following reports that a grey Renault Trafic van had left the carriageway.

Cheshire Police have now confirmed that a 52-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene.

A second man, aged 53, was taken to hospital, where he later died from his injuries.

Two other men, aged 49 and 48, were also taken to hospital with their injuries not thought to be life-threatening at this time.

The next of kin of those involved have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.

Detective Sergeant Amy Hollis, of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: "This is a tragic incident, and our thoughts remain with the families and loved ones of those affected.

"We are continuing to work to establish exactly what happened and would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision, saw the vehicle involved in the moments leading up to it, or has dashcam footage that could assist our investigation, to get in touch with us."
