The crash happened less than an hour after three men, all from the Leeds area, died following a crash between three motorbikes, a van and a car on the nearby A53.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Derbyshire Police on 101, quoting reference number 319 of August 18 for the Tom Thorn crash, or 24*492531 for the A53 crash.
