Man cut free as car crashes into wall


A PASSENGER had to be cut free from a car after it collided with a garden wall in Welling.

Emergency services were called to Okehampton Crescent just before 2am today, where a man in his early 20s was trapped inside a car.

It is thought the driver lost control of the car while driving through a chicane on the road, before colliding with a front garden wall and a tree.

The driver - who is also in his early 20s - managed to escape from the vehicle without injury.

But the passenger had to be cut free and removed on a spinal-board, before being taken to hospital.
