A manhunt has been launched for a driver who ‘ran away’ from a fatal crash on the M40.
Warwickshire Police believe 23-year-old Akashdeep Singh may have left the scene of the six-vehicle crash, just before 7.15pm on Saturday, on foot.
A woman in her 50s, who was a passenger in one of the cars, died at the scene after five cars and a Peugeot boxer van collided.
Her next of kin have been told and are being supported by specialist officers.
Releasing a picture of Singh, police said he goes by the name Akash and has links in Oldbury and the wider West Midlands.
The force said they want to speak to Singh in connection with the fatal crash.
It happened on the northbound carriageway of the M40 between junction 11 for Banbury and 12 for Gaydon.
A spokesperson explained: ‘Have you seen Akashdeep Singh or do you know where he is?
‘If members of the public have information to help us find him or can share details about the collision, please get in touch.
‘We’d also ask anyone who has dashcam footage of the collision, the Peugeot and the manner it was being driven prior to the collision to share it with us.’
