Two men have died following a two-car crash in Worcestershire.

West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to the A44, near Egdon, Worcester, at 12.32am and sent three ambulances, two paramedic officers, a MERIT trauma doctor with a critical care paramedic, and the Midlands Air Ambulance Critical Care Car to the scene.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “On arrival crews discovered four patients. One of whom, a man who was driving one of the cars, was found to have suffered serious injuries in the incident. Sadly, it quickly became apparent nothing could be done to save him and he was confirmed dead at the scene.

“A second man, also a driver, was found to be in a critical condition. Ambulance staff immediately began administering advanced life support but sadly, despite their best efforts, he was also confirmed dead at the scene.

“A further man, and a woman, were assessed and treated for injuries not believed to be serious before being taken to Worcester Royal Hospital.”

West Mercia Police are appealing for witnesses to the incident.
