A woman has died after a car crashed into a wall in Woolton.
Police attended Allerton Road just after 11.30pm on Friday (September 4) following reports that a red Nissan Juke had come off the road and collided with a brick wall.
Emergency services attended but a 38-year-old woman was sadly pronounced deceased. Her next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.
Allerton Road was closed off to traffic as part of a forensic investigation into the incident but all roads surrounding the scene have since been reopened.
Sergeant Phil Everett said: “Our thoughts are with the family members of the woman who sadly died following the collision late last night and they are being supported by a specially trained family liaison officer.
“We are in the early stages of an investigation into this incident and it is now our priority to confirm exactly how the collision occurred.
“We know this happened late last night when many residents may have been inside their homes but if anyone saw what happened or were driving through the area just before the incident occurred then please get in touch.
“Similarly, if you live in the area and have doorbell footage of the incident, please contact us. You may have information or footage that could be vital to our investigation.”
