Police are trying to piece together the last movements of a man who was found dead on the beach at Fleetwood.

On Friday at around 17:00 BST, a dog walker found the death of Staffordshire resident George Wiskin, 76.

He passed away from natural causes, according to a post-mortem study.

The police have asked witnesses to come forward “for the sake of his family” and believe that Mr. Wiskin may have been in the Blackpool region for a conference.

Following a crash at a Fleetwood roundabout this morning (Wednesday, June 26), emergency services were called to Chatsworth Avenue, where the car mounted the roundabout shortly after 7am.

The car then crashed through multiple bollards on the roundabout, into a bus stop and a brick wall on the other side, and finally came to a stop outside a retirement home.

A woman was taken to the hospital following the incident.

Ambulance personnel treated the woman on the spot before bringing her to a hospital for more care.

While police, ambulance, and fire departments were on the site, the road was closed.

“We were called at 7.06am today to Chatsworth Avenue, Fleetwood, to a report of a road traffic collision,” a police spokesperson stated.

“It was discovered that an automobile had struck some street equipment and a roundabout.

“The driver was hurt and sent to the hospital to receive medical attention.”

We contacted North West Ambulance Service to get more information on the victim and her injuries.

The driver of the tanker truck, according to Fleetwood Police, was sent to the hospital for assessment, but the passenger in the car that collided with the truck, Kenneth Swartzentruber, 18, did not survive.

“We were provided with more details indicating that there were injuries, and upon arriving at the scene, we discovered one male deceased,” stated Fleetwood Police Chief Dale Ulshafer.

In order to complete their thorough crash recreation and investigation, crews stopped Route 12 between Mt. Laurel Road and Route 662 and Route 73 between Hartz Road and 662. It could have been considerably worse, according to the chief.

Fortunately, it appears that the tanker was now empty. Ulshafer stated, “If it was carrying flammable liquids as indicated by the placard, but there was no leakage, no danger to the community.”

A makeover is presently underway at the normally bustling junction during morning and evening rush hours.

“Construction is now underway in this area. It’s now being built; I’m not sure if that was the case at the time of the disaster, Ulshafer added.

One man was interviewed by 69 News regarding the traffic at the crossroads.

According to local resident Jeffrey Broad, “this is a busy intersection and it’s a tight square here if you’re four-way traffic coming up and down 73 and going across Pricetown Road.”

He expresses the hope that the continuing road construction may lessen the number of terrible collisions like this one in the future.

This area sees a lot of traffic accidents, particularly when crossing Pricetown Road and ascending into Allentown. Many truck drivers frequently pass through this area.
