THREE people had to be taken to Worcestershire Royal Hospital after two cars were in collision with each other.

The accident took place on Worcester Road, Stourport-on-Severn, yesterday, outside Cooks Garden Centre, at 12.03pm.

The collision between a Volkswagen Golf and Suzuki Liana caused the road to be blocked.

The traffic was redirected by a member of the public.

The woman driver of the Suzuki had to be cut from the car by firefighters.

The woman driver of the Golf suffered from whiplash and her male passenger was left shaken.

The three people were treated at Worcestershire Royal and discharged yesterday.

A police spokeswoman described the accident as a "minor collision" and said none of the injuries were life-threatening.

The road was cleared by 12.50pm.
