Student, 18, hurt in serious collision near Welbourn school
An 18-year-old student was hurt yesterday in a serious collision with a car on Main Road, Welbourn, outside the Sir William Robertson School.
Emergency services were called to the scene after the woman was in collision with a black Mercedes C Class and the student from the school was airlifted to the Queen's Medical Centre at Nottingham.
Police closed a section of the A607 near the school yesterday afternoon following the incident which happened at 3.30pm.
A police spokesman said: "We would like to hear from anyone who was in the area of the school on the A607 and either saw the collision or saw the pedestrian or the black Mercedes before the collision to contact us via 101."
The school cancelled a parents' evening due to be held last night because of the incident.
