WILTSHIRE police have named the 19-year-old man who died in a crash in Melksham on Saturday as Max George Lewis.

Max, from Melksham was killed after a crash shortly before 3pm in Forest Lane, about one and a half miles outside the town.

Another man was critically injured in the collision.

Wiltshire Police are now urgently trying to trace two drivers who they believe can help the investigation.

The crash involved a white Renault Master van, travelling from Melksham towards Lacock, and a red Citroen Saxo travelling towards Melksham.

Max, who was the front seat passenger in the Saxo, a 19-year-old man from the local area, died at the scene.

The Saxo’s driver, a 22-year-old man from Melksham, was taken by air ambulance to Southampton General Hospital where his condition was described on Saturday night as critical but stable.

The male driver of the Renault van, who is 25 and from the Trowbridge area, was taken to the Royal United Hospital in Bath. He was described as walking wounded.

Anyone with information about the collision, or the identity of the two drivers, should phone Wiltshire Police on 101 and ask for me or the collision investigation team.
