A man has died following a collision in Trafford.

Shortly before 1.45pm on Christmas Day, a blue Peugeot 206 was travelling along Hardwick Road, Partington.

At the same time, a white Yamaha FZ6 motorcycle was being ridden in a south-easterly direction along Moss Lane.

As the Peugeot reached the junction, it was involved in a collision with the motorcycle. The rider, a 21-year-old man, was taken to hospital where he sadly died some time later.

The driver of the Peugeot stayed at the scene and no arrests have been made.
