POLICE have released another appeal following a fatality on the A303 at the weekend.

The incident, which resulted in the death of a 27-year-old man, took place on the eastbound carriage of the busy road near Popham.

Police say the man, who was walking along the road sometime between 12.20am and 12.30am on Saturday 23 May, was hit by multiple cars and died at the scene.

Hampshire Constabulary are currently investigating the incident and are appealing for drivers who may have witnessed the collision to come forward.

Sergeant Gabe Snuggs, of the Eastleigh Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “We’re still appealing for people to come forward who were travelling on the A303 either eastbound or westbound between 12.10 and 12.40am that morning.

“Did you see a man trying to cross the road or walking alongside it? Maybe you saw something unusual in the carriageway or perhaps struck something but weren’t sure?

“We’ve already spoken to a car driver and an HGV driver and identified further lines of enquiry and further potential witnesses.

“These include two or three vehicles that would have potentially passed the man in lane two of the eastbound carriageway at Popham just before the services.

“We’d also like to hear from any potential witnesses who may have swerved to avoid a cone we’re told was in lane one just before this section.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Sergeant Snuggs at Eastleigh police station on 101 quoting Operation Bucklesham.
