An incredible tragedy 😔🕯️

Cleveland Police can confirm that seven people have died as a result of a collision in South Bank at 3.39am this morning (Saturday 22 August).

This includes two serving Cleveland Police officers who were in a marked police vehicle and five members of the public who were travelling in a Volkswagen Passat.

The Passat was travelling the wrong way along the A66 and collided with a police vehicle that was travelling on the same road in the right direction.

Sadly, all occupants of both vehicles were pronounced dead at the scene. The families of those identified have been informed and are being offered specialist support.

Chief Constable Victoria Fuller said: “First and foremost, our thoughts are with the families of everyone involved in today’s incident.

“No one should leave their home and not return safely, including police officers serving their communities and protecting the people of Cleveland.

“This tragic incident will be felt across Cleveland, within our communities and throughout the entire policing family.

“We are providing specialist support to all families involved at this extremely difficult time.

“The investigation has been referred to the IOPC, which is the standard approach when a death occurs following police contact. We will cooperate fully with their investigation.

"While this investigation takes place, we strongly urge people to avoid speculation."

A referral has been made to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), as is mandatory in these circumstances.

We are still working to formally identify all occupants of the Volkswagen Passat.
