A PASSENGER in a sports car who died following a collision near Beccles at the weekend has been named by police.

Brian Hunter-Lindsay, died after the Porsche 911 Targa he was in left the A146 at Worlingham, just before 2.45am on Sunday, and collided with roadside trees and vegetation before returning to the road where there was a second collision involving a green Vauxhall Astra.

The driver of the Porsche - a 40-year-old man - was taken to the James Paget hospital at Gorleston, with minor injuries. He was later arrested and interviewed on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and has now been bailed to return to Lowestoft Police Station on May 23.

A female passenger in the Vauxhall was also taken to the James Paget Hospital with minor injuries.

Police are now keen to speak to anyone who saw the Porsche or the Vauxhall before the collisions, anyone who saw the incident itself or anyone who passed the scene in the early hours.

It is thought that at least two cars passed the Porsche before the second collision and police need to speak to the drivers of these vehicles. It’s thought the two cars were heading towards Lowestoft and would have passed through debris on the road.

Anyone with information should call PC Andy Fossey at the serious collision investigation team on 01473 613500.
