Woman dies after collision in Sparkbrook

We are investigating after a woman in her 20s has died following a collision in Sparkbrook. We were called to Highgate Road near to the junction with Woodfield Road shortly before 2am this morning (10 Dec) to a collision involving a black BMW and a taxi. Sadly, the driver of the BMW was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the taxi was taken to hospital with potentially life changing injuries. Three passengers of the BMW, two men and a woman, were taken to hospital with injuries not believed to be life threatening.
