A woman in her 40s is believed to have escaped with minor injuries after she became trapped when her car overturned this morning on the B1149 at Saxthorpe, near Holt.

Fire crews from Holt and Aylsham used hydraulic rescue equipment to release the woman from the Daewoo Matiz.

The single-vehicle incident happened at about 9.20am and the road was still blocked at 10.40am.

The East Anglian Air Ambulance also attended, landing in a field nearby. After being treated at the scene, the patient was left in the care of the East of England Ambulance Service Trust land ambulance crew.

A spokesman for the trust said the woman was assessed at the scene by ambulance crew who decided that she did not need hospital treatment.
