Police have launched an appeal for witnesses after a woman was injured in a crash with a parked car and telegraph pole.

The air ambulance, police and fire crews were called to the A290 between Canterbury and Whitstable after the accident at 8.30am yesterday (Sunday).

The road was partly blocked in Pean Hill, just outside Whitstable, as emergency services dealt with the incident.

Fire crews cut the woman free from her car - a red Renault Clio which hit a parked silver car and a telegraph pole - and she was transferred into the care of the paramedics.

She was flown by air ambulance to a London hospital and her injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

This section of road is becoming notorious for accidents and on October 8, 17-year-old Danny Lee was tragically killed there.

Another woman was cut free from the wreckage of her car after another accident in August along the same bit of road.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Kent Police on 01843 222289 quoting reference 25-0392.
