A newborn baby was rushed to hospital with serious injuries after a two car smash.

At around 5pm on Friday (July 21) a dark grey Ford Fiesta and a dark grey Ferrari were involved in a crash at the junction of the A558 Daresbury Expressway and Manor Park Avenue in Runcorn[1]. The Ferrari was travelling from the Mersey Gateway[2] and the Fiesta was joining the carriageway from Manor Park Avenue.

Police are now appealing for any witnesses who may have witnessed the crash or events leading up to it to get in touch.

Cheshire Police’s[4] Sgt Andy Denninson said: “We’re keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the collision or events leading up to it. The same goes for anyone with dashcam footage that may have captured events or prior driving of either vehicle leading up to the collision and the collision itself.”
