A man had to be cut out of his car after a three-vehicle collision in Stretham last night.

A Cambs Fire spokesman said: “Firefighters using specialist cutting equipment extricated a male casualty from a vehicle by removing its roof.

“The man and two other casualties were taken to hospital by ambulance.”

One crew from Soham, and two from Suffolk, attended the road traffic collision on the A1123 junction with the A10 at Stretham at around 6.07pm.

The Soham crew returned to its station by 8.50pm.
