Police are appealing for witnesses following a fatal collision on the A19 near Chapel Haddlesey in which a 34-year-old motorcyclist died.
The collision happened at about 1.50pm on Friday, 19 June, on the A19 just north of Chapel Haddlesey, and involved a black Honda motorcycle and a red Vauxhall Corsa.
The motorcyclist, a 34-year-old man from the Selby area, was taken to hospital but later died despite the efforts of medical staff. His family have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.
