WOMAN FATALLY INJURED AND MAN AIRLIFTED IN WORCESTERSHIRE RTC
A woman has died and a man has been airlifted to hospital following a single-vehicle RTC this morning.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to the B4204 in Clifton on Teme at 10.58am and sent two ambulances, two paramedic officers and the Midlands Air Ambulance from Strensham to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “On arrival crews discovered a car that had left the road and come to rest in a field, on its side.
“There were two patients. One of whom, a woman, was found to be in a critical condition. Ambulance staff administered advanced life support but sadly, despite their best efforts, it became apparent nothing could be done to save her and she was confirmed dead at the scene.
“The second patient, a man, was cut free from the car by the fire service. He was treated for serious injuries before being airlifted to Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham.”
