A woman who suffered a head injury was cut free from her car yesterday after a crash in Dartford.

The victim, aged in her 20s, was rushed to King's College Hospital but her injuries are not believed to be serious.

Kent Fire and Rescue were called to the crash in Sussex Road at around 1.30pm.

Firefighters used hydraulic rescue equipment to remove the roof of the car to free the woman who had become trapped by her injuries.

She was then treated by paramedics while fire crews made the scene safe.

A spokesman for the ambulance service said they sent an ambulance and a car crew to the scene.
