A MAN arrested following a fatal road traffic collision last year will face no further police action.

Officers were called to Torwood Street, Torquay, at around 5.05pm on Sunday, August 31 to reports of the collision involving a black Audi Q5, a blue Suzuki SV 650 motorcycle and a grey Ford Ranger.

Sadly, the motorcycle rider, 24-year-old Ben Rafton, from Southampton but originally of Plymouth, sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Following the collision the Audi driver – a man in his 20s from Plymouth - was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

He will face no further police action due to no evidence supporting a prosecution.

A file is now being prepared for HM Coroner.

Following Ben’s traffic death, his parents paid an emotional tribute describing him as ‘a fine young man’ who made everyone around him laugh.
