Police appeal after man hit by ‘several vehicles’ on M40 in Warwickshire

A MAN was hit by several vehicles on the M40 on Saturday night (21st September).

Warwickshire Police said the pedestrian, who is in his 30s, was taken to hospital with serious injuries to his legs as they appealed for witnesses to the incident.

It happened at about 8pm on the northbound carriageway between junction 11 for Banbury and junction 12 for Gaydon.

PC Craig Pearson, from the Warwickshire Police Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “We’re currently carrying out enquiries to establish how the man came to be on the M40 and the exact circumstances leading up to the collisions.

“We believe a number of vehicles collided with him and others swerved to avoid him. It is also possible that someone might have collided with him without realising.
