A ROMSEY teenager is fighting for his life after crashing into a tree.

The 19-year-old was driving a VW Golf when he hit a tree in Lee Lane at 10.45pm yesterday.

He was taken to Southampton General Hospital with life-threatening injuries.

His family has been informed and are being supported by officers.

Police are now asking for anyone who may have been travelling in that area around the time of the incident to get in touch.

Sgt Chris Thompson, from Hampshire’s Roads Policing Unit, said: “We’re trying to establish the exact circumstances which led to this car coming off the road.

“It happened in an isolated area, so if people were driving nearby around this time and saw this silver VW Golf or any other vehicles prior to the collision, they should let us know.

“We’re particularly keen to speak to anyone who may have any dash cam footage from around that time which may have captured the silver VW Golf, as this may help with our enquiries.”

Anyone with information is asked to call 101, quoting 44230196768.
