A WOMAN was found dead and a man was seriously injured following a “collision with a vehicle” last night.
Two men, aged 33 and 63, have been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving after the ordeal in Nuneaton, West Midlands.
The seriously injured man was found on Roanne Ringway near the junction with Queens Road at around 11.20pm.
He was taken to hospital – where he is said to be in a serious but stable condition with injuries to his arm.
And then 20 minutes later, a woman’s body was discovered on Marlborough Road – with paramedics declaring her dead at the scene.
Cops also seized a car near to where the woman was found.
After the two discoveries, a 33-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and failing to stop at the scene of an accident after showing up at the local police station.
A second man, aged 63, was then arrested at his home on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
Cops have said that they are treating the death of the woman and the man’s injuries as linked.
It’s believed they were both involved in a collision with a vehicle.
Sergeant Dan James from Warwickshire Police Roads Policing Unit said: “This was a terrible incident and our immediate thoughts are with the families of the two people involved.
“It’s too early to speculate on exactly what happened but at this time we are treating the death of the woman and the injury to the man as linked, and we believe both have been involved in a collision with a vehicle.
“We are working to piece together exactly what happened.
“It is vital that anyone in the areas around the time the man and woman were discovered gets in contact with police, especially if they have any dash cam or CCTV footage.”
