Appeal as rider dies weeks after motorcycle crash

A motorcyclist has died several weeks after a crash involving two motorbikes in North Yorkshire, police have said.

The collision happened on Mook Street, near Westow, at 10:35 BST on 2 August.

Both riders were airlifted to hospital with serious injuries after the crash.

North Yorkshire Police said one of the men had since died following a short period in hospice care.

A second rider remains in hospital with serious injuries.

In a renewed appeal, officers asked anyone who saw either a yellow Yamaha motorcycle or a white Honda motorcycle in the area before the crash to come forward.
