A MOTORIST had to be cut free from his car which had rolled over after it struck a barrier.

Firefighters freed the man, who is believed to be in his 30s, from the wreckage near junction four of the M25, near Bromley and Orpington, at around 1.50am today (August 27).

He was then taken to hospital suffering from neck, back and leg injuries.

The motorway near the crash scene was closed while emergency services attended the incident and removed the man's Ford Focus from the road.

Fire crews from Orpington, Dartford and Sevenoaks were there for around an hour.

• In a separate incident, firefighters were called to Bean Lane, Bean, after a vehicle came off the A2 at around 2am.

The driver was not trapped in his car.

A crew from Dartford was at the incident for around 30 minutes.
