Two people rescued after emergency services called to Halland

A spokesperson for East Sussex Fire and Rescue said emergency services teams rescued a man and a woman from the collision, both of whom were later sent to hospital.

Called to the scene at 10.13pm, crews had to use an electric saw and hydraulic equipment to rescue both casualties from their car, which had tipped onto its roof.

A spokesperson for Sussex Police added that the road was closed for several hours while a collision investigation was carried out. Officers are keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the collision or saw the vehicle, a silver Mercedes Benz E55, being driven in the area beforehand.
