Man appears in court after three-week-old baby killed in crash

A 39-year-old man charged with causing death by dangerous driving after a three-week-old baby was killed in a car crash has been remanded in custody, court officials said.

Craig Nunn, of Sandy Lane, Stourport, Worcestershire, is also accused of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.

West Mercia Police said the fatal collision happened on the A451 between Kidderminster and Stourport just after midnight on Saturday and involved a black Ford Focus and a black Suzuki Vitara. The baby was in the Suzuki and died at the scene.

The other two occupants, a man and a woman in their 20s, were taken to hospital for treatment to injuries which are not thought to be life-threatening.

Nunn appeared at Kidderminster Magistrates’ Court on Monday morning and his case will next be before Worcester Crown Court for a plea hearing on November 25, a court official said.

He was remanded into custody in the meantime, the official confirmed.
