Detectives are appealing for witnesses after a 16-year-old boy died in a collision in south-east London.
Police were called at 15:32hrs on Monday, 9 October to Sevenoaks Way, St Paul’s Cray, to reports of a moped in collision with an orange Vauxhall Mokka car.
Despite the efforts of the emergency services, the 16-year-old moped rider, died at the scene.
His next of kin have been informed and are being supported by officers.
The driver of the Mokka, stopped at the scene and was treated for shock.
The investigation into the cause of the collision is being led by homicide detectives from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command.
Detective Inspector Martin Thorpe said: “At this early stage in the investigation, we believe a red Mercedes car collided with the moped, causing the rider to veer into the path of the orange Vauxhall Mokka car.
“We have recovered the Mercedes a short distance away from the collision site, but we have not located the driver or any passengers in the vehicle.
“I’m appealing for anyone who was in Sevenoaks Way on Monday at around 3.30pm, near to the Currys store, who may have seen anything, or recorded any dash cam or mobile phone footage to contact us immediately.
“A teenage boy has tragically lost his life and his family and friends urgently need answers as to how and why this has happened.”
