Man dies during vehicle rally

A SHELF man has died after a crash during an historic vehicle rally.

Howard Turner, 59, of Shelf, was in a Austin Healey Sprite which was
in a collision with a Honda motorcycle on the B6479 near
Horton-in-Ribblesdale on April 15. He died more than two weeks later
from multiple injuries in Leeds General Infirmary.

Inspector Mike Harvey, of North Yorkshire Police, is now making a
fresh appeal for witnesses to the crash.

"The accident involved a classic Austin Healey convertible car and a
Honda motorcycle and has since proved fatal to the driver of the car,
Mr Turner, a married man of Shelf.

"The passenger in the car and the motorcycle rider and pillion also
sustained serious injuries."

Anyone with information should call PC Mark Tiffany, at the North
Yorkshire Police road policing group, on 01423 539726.
