Teenage boy dies following crash at Alconbury

A boy has died in hospital days after a serious crash on the A1M.

16-year-old Isaac Nockels was a front-seat passenger in a black Peugeot 107 when it was involved in a collision with a white Ford Transit 350 Leader minibus on Saturday 24 August at about 4.30pm.

The collision happened near junction 14 southbound at Alconbury Hill, resulting in the road being closed for several hours.

The driver of the Peugeot, a 49-year-old woman, suffered minor injuries and seven occupants of the minibus were also treated for minor injuries.

The driver of the minibus, a 26-year-old man from South Yorkshire, was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by careless driving, and has been released on bail until November.

Sergeant Mark Atkins from the Beds, Cambs and Herts Road Policing Unit:

“I would like to appeal for anyone who has dashcam footage of the collision, or either vehicle in the moments leading up to it, to contact us.

Many people stopped to help but have not yet provided statements, therefore I would also like to appeal for them to get in touch with us”.

Anyone with information should contact Cambridgeshire Police via their webchat, using reporting forms and quoting incident 359 of 24 August or by calling 101.
