By Graham Hill 4th Dec 2023
Two drivers were taken to hospital yesterday evening (Sunday) after a collision with a van at Flagstaff Island on the junction with the A42 in Ashby.
But the van left the scene before the emergency services arrived - and Leicestershire Police are now carrying out an investigation into what happened.
The van was later found abandoned following the incident.
Officers said the vehicles were waiting at the red lights at the roundabout when the collision occurred.
A spokesperson for Leicestershire Police told Ashby Nub News: "Shortly after 8pm yesterday (Sunday, December 3), police received a report of a collision involving two cars and a van on the Flagstaff Island, Ashby.
