A bus shelter was damaged after a lorry and a car crashed at the Aldington and Smeeth crossroads on the A20.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the smash which happened at the accident hot spot about 5pm on Thursday.

The driver of the car was trapped and an Ashford fire crew, using hydraulic cutting equipment, had to cut him free.
