"Multiple injuries" in crash on B4224 Hampton Bishop

Emergency crews raced to the scene just outside the city on the B4224 Hampton Bishop, which is home to the popular Bunch of Carrots pub, after the crash was reported.

A fire service spokesperson said crews were called out from Hereford fire station at 8.18pm last night (February 21).

All of the people involved had got themselves out of the car, the spokesperson said, but they were found to be suffering from "multiple injuries" and required trauma care.

The spokesperson said firefighters administered initial trauma care before handing the casualties over to the ambulance service.

Crews then made the vehicle safe and assisted police with road clearance.

The B4224 crash was the second reported last night, with an earlier crash closing the A438 at Bartestree for several hours after it was reported just after 4.30pm.

Two people were confirmed to have been taken to hospital for treatment in that crash, and we are seeking further information from emergency services.
