A man has died in a crash involving a police car and an ambulance.
The incident happened on the westbound carriageway of the A14 at Rougham, Suffolk, at about 4.35am.
A car, followed by a police vehicle and then an ambulance, were all involved in a collision with a man who was in the carriageway, Suffolk Police said.
The man, believed to be 19 and from the local area, died at the scene, and has not been formally identified.
Police said neither the police car nor the ambulance were responding to an emergency at the time and were not travelling on “blue light” runs.
The police vehicle was taking a person under arrest to custody and the ambulance had a patient on board, and no-one in either of the vehicles, or the other car involved, sustained any injuries.
The westbound carriageway was closed while a collision investigation took place, reopening at 2.30pm.
Suffolk Police have informed the Independent Office for Police Conduct about the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the serious collision investigation team on 101, quoting reference CAD 80 of October 14.
