A 26-year-old man has died after his vehicle collided with an ambulance on Myrtle Road in Sheffield, South Yorkshire Police have confirmed. Officers were called to the scene at 6.41pm on Wednesday 9 September, and paramedics performed CPR on the man, but he could not be saved and died at the scene. The force said the ambulance driver remained at the scene to assist with enquiries, and the man's family is being supported by officers following what police called a "tragic incident".
