Man suffers injuries after car ends up on side near Shrewsbury
A man was left with a serious laceration to his neck after the car he was driving ended up on its side against a tree.
The crash happened at about 2.45am this morning on the A528 between Harmer Hill And Preston Gubbals, north of Shrewsbury.
A rapid response vehicle, an ambulance and a paramedic officer were sent to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “When ambulance staff arrived they found the car propped on its side against the tree.
“The driver, a man in his mid 30s, had managed to get out of the car but was disorientated.
“He had suffered a deep laceration to his neck as well as a head injury and chest pain, possibly from a ladder that was in the car.
“After being immobilised using a neck collar and spinal board, he was taken to Royal Shrewsbury Hospital where medics were on standby for his arrival.”
