Police have appealed for witnesses after two people suffered serious injures in a road collision.

One man was airlifted to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge with life-threatening injuries following the crash, which happened on the A134 at Wereham, near King's Lynn, on Friday about 5.45pm

A blue Ford Mondeo travelling from Stoke Ferry and a grey Vauxhall Zafira, travelling in the opposite direction, were involved in a collision.

The man was in the Mondeo, along with a woman, who also suffered serious injuries and had to be taken to hospital.

The male driver of the Zafira suffered minor injuries and was treated by paramedics at the scene.

The road was closed while emergency services dealt with the incident and was re-opened at 9.40pm.

Norfolk Fire and Rescue crews from King's Lynn and Methwold arrived at 6.07pm and used hydraulic rescue equipment to release one of the victims from a vehicle.

Police are keen to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the collision or has information concerning the driving manner of either vehicle prior to the incident.

Anyone with information should contact PC Gemma Hamilton-Rout at Wymondham Roads Policing on 101.
