Our teams had a busy start to the week and flew five times across the region on Monday.
Our critical care team based at Teesside International Airport were called at 12.23pm to Bedlington after reports of a motorcycle collision.
Our paramedic and doctor assessed and treated a patient before accompanying them to hospital on a North East Ambulance Service vehicle.
The full story is available on the Chronicle Live, where it is reported that the male patient subsequently died in hospital. Our thoughts are with those closest to him.
Anyone with information is asked to contact 101 quoting reference 509 29/07/19 or by emailing the officer in charge at 510@northumbria.pnn. police.uk .
