A crash on the A46 on Friday (October 10) which saw the road closed south of Warwick left two men in hospital.

The incident between Bishopton and Snitterfield saw two cars collide at around 12.51pm, with one of the drivers having to be cut from the vehicle.

Police, ambulances, the fire service and the air ambulance were all called to the scene.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said: “On arrival, crews found a man, who required the assistance of the fire service to be cut free from one of the vehicles.

“Once removed from the car, ambulance staff treated him for serious injuries and he was conveyed to University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.

“A second man was treated by crews for injuries not believed to be serious and conveyed to the same hospital.

“A third patient, a woman, was assessed but was not injured and so was discharged at the scene.”
