The rider of the e-bike, a 31-year-old man from Cambridge, was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital with life-threatening injuries. The other passenger, a 34-year-old woman from Cambridge, was taken to the same hospital with serious injuries.

At the time, the driver of the car failed to stop at the scene. However, at around 2am, officers arrested a 19-year-old man from Luton and two 21-year-old men from High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire on suspicion of perverting the course of justice.

Police have provided an update on the three men arrested. A police spokesperson said: “A 21-year-old man, from High Wycombe, has been bailed until June 25. The other two were released under investigation.”

Newmarket Road was closed for nearly 12 hours while investigations took place, and it reopened just after 10.30am.
