A sad loss

A lorry driver died when his truck crashed into a Royal British Legion club building.

The man, who has not been identified, was delivering milk in Wednesbury in the West Midlands at about 20:00 GMT.

His vehicle smashed into the building at the junction of High Bullen and Church Hill.

He was pronounced dead at the scene and a number of customers were evacuated from the club “as a precaution”, police said.

The area was sealed off while the building was made safe and the vehicle recovered.

A West Midlands Police spokesperson said officers were attempting to identify the driver and notify next of kin.

Officers have appealed for witnesses to the crash to contact them.
