A driver accused of the death of a pensioner more than a month after a crash in Norwich has been acquitted.
Andrew Critten, 37, was driving a Mercedes Vito on Duke Street, Norwich, on June 20, 2018, when the vehicle was involved in a crash with a 77-year-old pedestrian.
The pedestrian, Richard Broughton, suffered injuries as a result of the crash and later died on July 26, 2018.
Mr Critten, of Heath Close, Norwich, was due to stand trial in July after pleading not guilty to causing death by careless driving.
But the case was listed at Norwich Crown Court on Friday, January 29 for an application by the Crown Prosecution Service to offer no evidence in the matter.
