A motorcyclist has died after a crash with a van.

Leicestershire Police said the collision occurred just after 14:15 BST on Saturday in Hall Lane, Whitwick.

The rider of the motorcycle, a man in his 20s who was on a white red and black Aprilia, was taken to hospital but died later that day.

The driver of the van, a red Vauxhall Astra, was not injured. Police have asked anyone who may have seen what happened to come forward.

In particular, they would like to speak to the owner of a silver estate-type vehicle that was being driven in Hall Lane minutes before the crash.
