Car failed to stop after forcing motorcycle to collide with wall in Armley

    Police are appealing for information after a motorcyclist was seriously injured in Leeds.

    The incident took place on Heights Drive in Armley on Monday, 1 May.

    It occurred at about 2.35pm after a black Suzuki motorcycle collided with a wall while turning right from Heights Lane onto Heights Way.

    Officers believe the rider had taken evasive action while trying to make the turn to avoid a black VW Golf which was heading towards it after making an overtaking manoeuvre on the other side of the road.

    The bike rider, a 21-year-old man, suffered serious leg injuries and was taken to Leeds General Infirmary.

    The VW Golf did not stop at the scene.
