A man in his 40s has died following a crash between a motorcycle and a van in Margate.
The tragedy occurred when a red bike collided with a blue Ford Transit travelling in the opposite direction along College Road.
Yesterday, police reported that the rider of the motorcycle, a man in his 40s, and the passenger, a woman in her 30s, both received serious injuries and were taken to a London hospital.
However, they confirmed today that the man died of his injuries at the scene, and that next of kin have been made aware.
The driver of the van, a 56-year-old man from Broadstairs, aided the police in their investigation into the incident, which happened at about 8.20pm.
He has since been released pending further enquiries, and investigating officers are appealing for witnesses.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Serious Collision Investigation Unit appeal line on 01622 798 538 or email sciu.td@kent.pnn.police.uk quoting DS/DC/036/20.
