Electric motorbike rider seriously hurt in crash

A motorcyclist who was seriously injured in a crash "may have been lying in the road for some time" before the collision was reported, police have said.

Emergency services were called to reports of a collision on Bridgeway in Bradford at about 01:25 GMT on Thursday.

The injured man, in his 30s, who had been riding a Surron electric motorcycle, was taken to hospital with spinal and neck injuries.

Police asked anyone who may have seen the collision, seen the motorcycle before the crash, or who may have passed the man after the collision to get in touch.

Anyone with video footage of the crash, or the circumstances leading up to it, was also asked to contact West Yorkshire Police.
