A motorcyclist has died in a crash on a major road in West Sussex, police have said.

Emergency services were called to the A27 Arundel Road at about 20:25 BST on Tuesday.

A Sussex Police spokesperson said the 20-year-old man from Worthing died at the scene. His next of kin has been informed.

The A27, which had been closed in both directions between the A280 (Clapham) and the A24 near Worthing, has now reopened.

The force said the investigation was ongoing and officers would like to hear from the driver of a dark blue BMW who may have seen the motorcycle before the crash.
