A 34-year-old man died yesterday evening after he came off his motorcycle on Staples Corner Flyover, NW2.

Police attended the incident with a London Ambulance Service and London’s Air Ambulance. However, the man was pronounced dead at the scene and his next of kin were later informed of this death.

No arrests have been made but detectives are investigating the circumstances leading up to his death and have made an appeal for information. They would like to hear from any witnesses or anybody who has dash cam or CCTV footage of the incident, especially those travelling on the eastbound carriageway.

Anyone who can help is asked to call police on 101 quoting CAD 6721/01DEC21 or the Serious Collision Investigation Unit (SCIU) Witness Line 0208 246 9820.
