Two men die following car crash on A50 in Derbyshire

The collision occurred on the eastbound side of the carriageway between Toyota Island and Chellaston at around 10.15 am on Sunday, April 16.

Two men, who were in a Bentley Bentayga which left the carriageway and struck a bridge pillar, were pronounced dead at the scene.

The families of the men have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.

Investigations are ongoing and officers would like to speak to anyone who saw the collision or who has dashcam footage.
