A man has died following a two-car RTC in Telford yesterday afternoon.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to reports of a two-car RTC near to the junction of Woodford Green and the B5063 in Shawbirch 4.08pm (Tuesday) and sent two ambulances, a paramedic officer, the Midlands Air Ambulance from Cosford and a Community First Responder to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “On arrival crews discovered two male patients, the drivers of each car.
“Sadly, it quickly became apparent nothing could be done to save one man and he was confirmed dead at the scene.
“The second man was assessed for minor injuries and discharged at the scene.”
