Man arrested after fatal crash
A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a pensioner died following a crash in Worcestershire.

The 73-year-old woman died when her Honda Civic car was in collision with another car near The Woodman pub, in Bewdley at 1800 BST on Sunday.

The woman was flown to Worcestershire Royal Hospital by air ambulance but died later.

West Mercia Police said they believed the woman had been involved in a row in the car park of the pub just before the crash.

Police confirmed the victim was on her own in the car at the time of the incident and said a man had been arrested on suspicion of murder.

A post mortem examination was carried out on Monday and her identity is not being released until relatives have been informed.

Police are appealing for witnesses.
