Photos show an overturned car on a busy Derby road[1] following a collision this morning (Monday, February 12). The incident led to Locko Road in Spondon[2] being closed for more than two hours as a man suffered minor injuries.
One eye-witness said, just minutes after the collision: "In the last few minutes there have been at least four sirens from emergency vehicles going past in Locko Road, Spondon. I saw one of them was a fire and rescue vehicle with the words 'Major Rescue Unit' on the side."
A spokesperson for Derbyshire police[3] said: "We were called by EMAS[4] following a single-car collision in Locko Road at 8am today. The driver of a black Kia had suffered minor physical injuries after the car had flipped onto its roof and blocked the road.
