A MOTORCYCLIST has died following a collision with a stationary car in Sheldon in Tuesday evening.

West Midlands Ambulance Service was called at 9.15pm to reports of the incident on Coventry Road and sent two ambulances, two paramedic officers, a BASICS emergency doctor and a critical care paramedic to the scene.

The 41-year-old motorcyclist had suffered serious injuries and was sadly confirmed dead at the scene.
