Two women taken to hospital following three car smash near Halesowen
A woman was trapped in her car for an hour today following a three car smash on a rural road.
Two cars and a van were involved in the crash in Bromsgrove Road, Hunnington, near Halesowen, shortly before 4.20pm.
Firefighters removed the roof of the woman's car - which had spun nearly 360 degrees - so she could be freed. She was taken to hospital with knee and hip injuries and a suspected fractured collarbone.
A passenger from the second car, aged in her 60s, was also taken to hospital with minor injuries.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: "On arrival, crews discovered a woman who was trapped in her car which had suffered front and rear end damage.
"The woman, believed to be in her 40s, was assessed and treated for a knee injury, a suspected hip injury and a suspected fractured collarbone.
"She was immobilised prior to being cut free from the vehicle and had a pelvic binder applied as well as being given pain relief."
The driver of the second car, a man in his 60s, and two men in the van, both in their 40s, were uninjured.
A Midlands Air Ambulance crew from Strensham also attended the crash.
