A woman has died after she crashed while riding a quad bike, police said today (Saturday, January 12).

A Northumbria Police spokesman said: ''Police and the ambulance service attended and a woman, the rider of the quad bike, was declared dead at the scene.
''A report will be prepared for the coroner.''
