THREE people were injured in a three vehicle crash on the A420 yesterday morning.

A white Mercedes van, a grey Ford Fiesta and a red Vauxhall Corsa collided on the Shrivenham bypass, near Acorn Bridge, at around 9.30am, completely blocking the road and causing lengthy tailbacks around two miles long.

One of the drivers was trapped in the vehicle and had to be cut free by firefighters.

The three people were said to have sustained non-life threatening injuries and were taken to Great Western Hospital for treatment.
