A driver escaped with only minor injuries after being cut free from the wreckage of a car by firefighters.

The two vehicle collision blocked the eastbound exit slip-road of the M55 at Broughton for around two hours on Sunday afternoon.

Fire crews had to use hydraulic cutting gear to remove the casualty.

But a fire brigade spokesman said: “The person released was only slightly injured. Our crew used cutting gear to make access easier for paramedics to treat the casualty.”
