Crewe fatal hit-and-run: Man arrested

By Jan Roberts 12th Nov 2021

Police have arrested a 29-year-old man from Market Drayton following an investigation into a fatal collision in Crewe.

The man was arrested last night (Sunday 7th November) and remains in custody. He has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, driving while disqualified, failing to stop, driving without insurance and obstructing a police constable.

At approximately 5.20pm on Friday 5 November Joshua Spender, (23), was crossing the pedestrian crossing outside McDonalds in Macon Way when a white van collided with him and failed to stop at the scene.

Sgt Simon Degg said: "I'd like to thank the public, including in Crewe and Market Drayton, and the media, for their assistance in the investigation. The number of concerned people who contacted us with information was heartening to see for us and for the family."

Enquiries are continuing.
