A teenager was arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving after a cyclist was killed in a crash.

A red VW Polo driving towards Brize Norton on the Witney Road collided with a bicycle travelling in the same direction on Wednesday, January 24.

The cyclist, a man in his 60s, died at the scene following the crash, which happened at around 3.55pm.

The driver, a 19-year-old man, was uninjured.

The teenager was arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving and has since been released on bail.

It is the seventh fatal crash on the roads of Oxfordshire since the start of the new year.

Police said the victim's next of kin have been informed and a family liaison officer is supporting them.

Senior investigating officer sergeant Dominic Mahon of the serious collision investigation unit, said: “Sadly a man has died following this collision and our thoughts are with his family.

"I would ask anyone who saw this collision, or the vehicles involved beforehand, to contact us.

“I would also ask any drivers with dash-cams, who were in the area at the time, to check their recordings and let us know if they have captured anything that could help our investigation."
