A seven-month-old girl has tragically died following a horror two-car crash, police have tragically revealed.
Police are pleading with the public for dascham footage or any witness accounts after the baby "very sadly" died when the grey Peugeot 508 it was travelling in crashed with a green Fiat 500 that was travelling in the opposite direction.
The Peugeot was travelling along the H10 grid road in Milton Keynes at 9.50pm on Sunday when the horror crash took place. The little girl was taken to the hospital after the crash but sadly died of her injuries, Thames Valley Police said.
Another passenger in the Peugeot, a 30-year-old woman, suffered minor injuries in the smash on H10 Bletcham Way, Bletchley.
The driver of the Fiat suffered a broken leg and was taken to Milton Keynes University Hospital for treatment, but has been discharged.
Police arrested a 27-year-old man from Milton Keynes in connection with the incident and detectives are now appealing for any information that could help their investigation.
