Shropshire RTC and Rollover

Two patients have been taken to hospital after an RTC rollover in Market Drayton overnight, which left a vehicle on its roof.

West Midlands Ambulance Service was called at 8:55pm last night (Wednesday) to reports of a collision on the A53 in Tern Hill. We sent two ambulances, a paramedic officer, the Midlands Air Ambulance Critical Care car, and a BASICS emergency doctor to the scene.

A West Midlands Ambulance spokeswoman said: “On arrival, crews were presented with two patients from the vehicle that had rolled over, with the passenger still trapped inside.

“Crews worked together to extricate the woman from the vehicle. She was then treated for serious injuries before being taken on blue lights and sirens to Royal Stoke University Hospital for further treatment.

“The second patient, a man, who was the driver, also suffered serious injuries in the collision and was conveyed to Royal Stoke University Hospital to receive further treatment.”
