A cyclist remains in hospital in a serious but stable condition after a crash on the outskirts of Potton at the weekend saw him airlifted from the scene.

Emergency services including the East Anglian Air Ambulance were called at approximately 12.25pm on Saturday to a crash in Hatley Road – which links Potton with Cockayne Hatley – after a car and a cyclist collided.

The cyclist – a man believed to be in his 40s – was unconscious but breathing when paramedics arrived, and regained consciousness at the scene.

The man was subsequently airlifted with serious head injuries to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, where he remains in a stable condition.

One man was arrested in connection with the incident, but has been released with no further action to be taken at this stage.

Investigations continue with Bedfordshire Police keen to speak to any potential witnesses, including the occupants of a blue car with L plates which was seen driving along the road just before the collision.
