A motorist was killed in a collision between a van and a car on a main bypass in Lancashire.
A Land Rover Discovery, pulling a trailer, and a van crashed on the A59 at Gisburn on Friday afternoon. The van driver died at the scene.
Two men who were in the Land Rover suffered injuries, which are not believed to be serious, and were taken to Airedale Hospital.
Lancashire Police are investigating the cause of the crash.
Sgt Mick Young, who is leading the investigation, said: "A full investigation is now under way and I would ask anybody who witnessed the collision to contact police.
"I would also like to speak to anyone who saw a white Nissan Van, with sign writing on the side, travelling through Gisburn towards Clitheroe, as well as anyone who saw a burgundy Land Rover Discovery travelling from Clitheroe towards Gisburn before the collision happened."
The A59 was closed at the Sawley junction for about four hours.
