Biker dies in car park crash
A young motorcyclist has died after crashing into a wall in a car park.

The 20-year-old was riding a Honda motorbike in the car park of an out of town shopping area in Guildford, Surrey.

The accident happened on Thursday at 2240 BST when the bike struck the wall in the Ladymead Retail Park at the end of Woodbridge Road.

Despite attempts by paramedics the man died from his injuries.

The car park, which is adjacent to Burger King, is a popular meeting place for motorcyclists.

Police have been trying to curb the activities of custom car drivers and bikers there for years.
