Two separate crashes reported on Herefordshire road
They both happened on the A49 today (15th April).
Just before 9am, emergency services were called to reports of an overturned lorry on the A49 between Hereford and Leominster at Queenswood.
In a statement, West Midlands Ambulance said "The caller said that it had hit the barriers at the side of the road. A single ambulance was sent. On arrival, the driver was already out of the lorry. After assessment at the scene, the man was taken to Hereford County Hospital for further treatment."
Later on, a second collision was reported on the A49 and Llandinabo at 12:06pm. This time it was between a car and a lorry.
In a further statement, West Midlands Ambulance said "On arrival, crews found a red car that had suffered significant damage and a lorry that had front end damage. There were five people in the car, four adults and a child.
"A middle aged woman had suffered a serious leg injury. After being helped out of the vehicle by ambulance staff, she was treated at the scene before being taken on blue lights to Hereford County Hospital. A middle aged man and two younger women were also treated at the scene for less serious injuries.
"A boy who was also in the car had minor injuries. All four were taken to the same hospital for further assessment and treatment. The lorry driver, a middle aged man was assessed at the scene and was discharged."
The road has since reopened.
