This afternoon, a police spokesman said a motorcyclist, believed to be a 17-year-old boy, had collided with a pedestrian, and received ‘potentially life threatening injuries’.
He added the pedestrian’s injuries were not life-threatening or life-changing.
Both patients were taken to King’s College Hospital where they are receiving treatment.
