The crash happened on the A15 near the Snitterby junction, Lincolnshire Police said

Two men have died after two lorries crashed on a major road in Lincolnshire.

The collision, which involved a Volvo and Scania lorry, happened near the Snitterby junction on the A15 north of Caenby Corner at about 09:30 GMT, Lincolnshire Police said.

One of the men was from the Barnsley area of South Yorkshire and the other was from Cleethorpes in north-east Lincolnshire, police added.

The road remains closed and officers have appealed for witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage of the scene to the police.

The force had previously said a car was also involved but has since clarified the incident only included the two lorries.

"Officers attended following the collision near the Snitterby junction, which involved a Volvo lorry and a Scania lorry," Lincolnshire Police said in a statement.

"Sadly, the drivers of both lorries were pronounced dead at the scene."
