A woman and a child have been involved in an unusual crash this morning near Thatchers Place in Droitwich Spa.
The accident occurred when their car swerved off the road and crashed into a nearby underpass.
The crash involved a woman in her 30's who has suffered a serious ankle injury, as well as back pain.
The other passenger in the car was a boy, believed to be two-years-old. He suffered minor facial injuries and also received treatment from paramedics before being transferred to hospital.
Crews arrived to find the car which had left the road, travelled around 50 yards and crashed down into the underpass below.
“She received emergency treatment from ambulance crews including pain relief and being immobilised using a spinal board and neck collar. “The woman was then transferred to Worcester Royal Hospital by ambulance for further treatment.
“Considering the circumstances of the crash it is extremely fortunate that no one suffered more serious injuries and no one was walking in the underpass at the time it happened.”
