Firefighters removed a car door to free a woman following a three-vehicle crash.

Two fire engines were sent and crews were there for just over 30 minutes.
The road had to be closed due to being obstructed and there was also an oil spill.
A fire service spokesman said: "Kent Fire and Rescue Service was called to a crash involving three vehicles on Town Road in Cliffe Woods, near Rochester.
"Two fire engines were in attendance, and crews used hydraulic rescue equipment to remove one of the car doors and free a woman from the vehicle."

"Kent Fire and Rescue Service also attended and provided assistance in removing one person from a vehicle."
South East Coast Ambulance spokesman Richard Airey said: "I can confirm ambulance crews attended the scene and that a female patient was assessed and treated before being taken to Medway Maritime Hospital."
