Police attend three crashes in one day in March, Coldham and Wisbech with drivers taken to hospital with injuries

Officers from the Wisbech Neighbourhood Policing Team and Fenland Response attended three crashes as rain lashed across the district yesterday.

The first was a two-vehicle collision on the A141 near Grandford Drove in March involving a Ford Ka and a Nissan.

Both drivers were taken to hospital by ambulance with slight injuries, and the vehicles were recovered. The road was closed while Cambridgeshire Highways treated the road surface due to fluid on the carriageway.

The second was a single-vehicle crash on the B1101 March Road at Coldham at 4.34pm on Thursday. Emergency services, including police, a fire crew and a paramedic, attended the scene as the vehicle entered a water-filled ditch.

Fire crews from Wisbech, March and Dogsthorpe were called to the scene and used specialist equipment to release two casualties who were left in the care of ambulance crews. No injuries were reported and the vehicle was recovered by police.

The third crash was on Somers Road in Wisbech, where a white van and a red Ford Fiesta collided. Police said slight injuries were reported at the scene, and both drivers have been taken to hospital by the ambulance service for checks.

Both vehicles were also recovered by police at the scene.
