Emergency services including the air ambulance were called and a road closed for three hours following a crash involving a car and a motorbike.

Crews were called just after 10.30am on Saturday (June 11) after a crash on the A449/B4218 at Chances Pitch, between Ledbury and Colwall.

“The Ledbury crew removed the door of the vehicle to aid and assist with treatment from West Midlands Ambulance Service HQ and Midlands Air Ambulance Charity,” a spokesperson for Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Service said.
