A MAN in his 80s has died after being hit by a lorry on the A46 northbound carriageway near Kenilworth.

Emergency services were called to the scene between the A452 Ashow exit and the A45 Stonebridge Highway to Festival Island, Baginton at 1.30am on Friday (May 22).

West Midlands Ambulance Service said a male pedestrian was confirmed dead at the scene.

His next of kin has been informed and the death is not being treated as suspicious at this time.




The road was shut for several hours between the A435 Oversley Mill roundabout and B439 Salford Priors Roundabout, but reopened just before 09.30am after police investigation work was completed.
