A PEDESTRIAN has died after being hit by a car in Kenilworth.
The collision took place at the junction of Leamington Road and Bullimore Grove at around 8.20pm on Sunday (November 2).
The pedestrian, a man in his 30s, was taken to hospital by ambulance where he later died. His next of kin has been informed and will be supported by specialist officers.
A 39-year-old man from Kenilworth was arrested at the scene on suspicion of death by dangerous driving. He is currently in police custody.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said: “When ambulance staff arrived on scene they found a man, a pedestrian, being given CPR by police. Crews immediately took over resuscitation efforts to perform advanced life support before rapidly conveying him to University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire for further emergency care. Sadly, nothing could be done to save the man, and he died later in hospital.”
