2012-04-12 - Rider/Pedestrian Down, RADSR E16

There was what appeared to be covered body on the Royal Albert Dock Spine Road, E16 outside Newham Council offices.

I passed by about 2130 and it looked like the police had only just arrived.

There was a large fuel lorry stopped nearby.

Thoughts and prayers for the victim, family and friends.

If anyone has some more info I would be grateful.

I am feeling a bit low having seen what appeared to be not a good situation.

Jesus this sounds horrible...

9.30 tonight? It's 11 april today.

somebody - go easy on yourself it sounds like a distressing sight.

only thing I could find online is from this morning - pedestrian death. the photo looks like the right place though: http://www.newhamrecorder.co.uk/news/pedestrian_dies_after_beckton_road_accident_1_1346249

yes 11 apr 2012. i have changed the date in the thread title.

^^ yes same road. same day.

but i think different incident.

the incident i saw looked like it had just happened. circa 2130.

Yeah i cycling home near there around 9:50pm and there was already the police on the scene, but that road i wouldn't advise to cycle around that roundabout as most cars and lorries run the red lights there!

My prays and thoughts are to the victims,family and friends also

yes i think what i saw was the ongoing investigation into the death reported in the newham recorder.

thanks for the research hoefla.

very sad news.
