Man remains in hospital following fatal Cramlington crash
The three-vehicle collision on the A192, in Cramlington, Northumberland, saw a huge emergency response at 9.30 pm on Friday, December 22, when a Suzuki, Range Rover and Ford Focus crashed into each other. Two teenagers – Connor Lapworth, 18, and Corey Mavin, 15, both of Blyth – were riding in the Suzuki, and were killed in the collision.
Police have now confirmed that a 41-year-old man, who was also in the Suzuki, remains in hospital as a result of the serious injuries that he sustained in the crash, though his condition is stable. Two others were treated in hospital after the incident – a 17-year-old male also in the Suzuki, and the 36-year-old driver of the Range Rover. Both have now been discharged from hospital.
The 52-year-old female driver of a Ford Focus was uninjured in the collision.
