BEWDLEY fire crews attended a road traffic collision between two vehicles yesterday, which left a woman dead.

A Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service crew from the town’s station was called to the crash in Newnham Bridge at about 5.20pm yesterday afternoon.

West Midlands Ambulance Service also attended the incident which left another man with minor injuries.

An ambulance spokeswoman said: “Ambulance staff arrived on scene to find two cars which had been involved in a collision.

“The driver and single occupant from one car, which had reportedly rolled over, was trapped in the wreckage.

“Sadly, it quickly became apparent to staff that nothing could be done to save the patient, a woman, and she was confirmed dead on scene.

“The single occupant of the second car, a man believed to be in his late 30s, sustained abdominal pain.

“Upon further assessment paramedics and the doctors ruled out further injuries. The man declined hospital treatment and was discharged on scene.”
