Police are appealing for dashcam footage after reports a car was being driven the wrong way on the A3 between Horndean and Petersfield.

It happened last night at around 10pm last night (Wednesday 17th May).

Officers then received further reports that there had been a collision involving three cars; a white Hyundai i20, a grey Land Rover Discovery and a light coloured Toyota Rav4.

One person suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries.

Ambulance and fire crews attended the scene and Highways assisted with road closures while recovery took place.

Following an initial investigation, police are now calling on anyone who witnessed the collision, or saw a car being driven the wrong way on the northbound carriageway last night, to come forward.

Officers would particularly like to speak to anyone with relevant dash cam footage of this incident.

If you have information that could assist Hampshire Police, call 101 quoting reference 44230195132.
