A DRIVER escaped injury after their car crashed into a telegraph pole in Hunnington, which caused it to topple over.

Fire services from Bromsgrove along with police and a single ambulance crew were called to the incident on Bromsgrove Road, Hunnington, at around 8pm on Tuesday, February 7.

The driver was not injured in the collision but police made the road safe while BT repairers were called to fix the pole after it was uprooted from the ground.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: "We were called at 7.52pm to reports of a single car RTC that had left the road and gone through a hedge.

"One ambulance attended but the patient did not need treatment."

A Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service spokesman added: "Nobody was trapped but the pole fell and was damaged so we had to get BT to come out and make it safe."
