Driver killed as truck hits wall on Stourport Road
A man has died after the pick-up truck he was driving crashed into a wall in Kidderminster.
The driver, aged in his 20s, died after his red Mitsubishi Trojan crashed on the A451 Stourport Road last night.
One ambulance and a paramedic officer were sent to the scene near the junction with Larches Lane but were unable to save the man.
He was pronounced dead at around 11.40pm.
A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service said: “On arrival crews discovered a pick-up truck that had suffered significant damage having crashed into a wall.
“The driver, a man, was found to have suffered multiple serious injuries in the incident.
“Unfortunately, it quickly became apparent nothing could be done to save him and he was confirmed dead at the scene."
