Let's hope that everyone makes a full recovery.

Several hurt as bus and car collide on Bristol Road South

Several people were injured and taken to hospital after a bus and car collided in Longbridge. The crash happened on Bristol Road South, near to the job centre, around 3pm on Sunday (June 4).

All three emergency services attended and there were a number of casualties transferred to hospital. Their injuries are not said to be serious.

It is not clear at this stage if the patients were from the car or bus.



A spokesman from West Midlands Police said: "We were called to Bristol Road South in Birmingham shortly after 3pm after a crash involving a car and a bus. Officers attended and assisted ambulance staff as a number of people were taken to hospital injuries which are not believed to be serious."

Surprised they could find a breakdown truck in the Birmingham area as I thought most of them were based in the vicinity of Cannock

Looks like 6771 was involved in a RTC at Shepwell Green, as it's parked up & there's debris on the mini roundabout!
