A 25-year-old biker is fighting for his life after a late-night crash in west London.

Now detectives are appealing for witnesses to the collision in Hounslow that left the motorcyclist in a life-threatening condition in hospital.

Scotland Yard said they were called by the ambulance service just after 11pm.

"Detectives from the serious collision investigation unit based in Merton are investigating," said a Met spokesman. "They are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the incident to come forward and assist them with their inquiry."
