A WOMAN was trapped in her car after a collision outside Worcester's Christopher Whitehead High School last night.

The accident happened just before 9pm on Malvern Road, St John's, when a red Vauxhall Astra was in collision with a blue Peugeot.

Two fire and rescue crews helped free the injured woman from the Peugeot.

She was taken to Worcestershire Royal Hospital, but it was thought her injuries were not serious, said Insp Nigel Archer, of West Mercia police.

The driver of the Astra escaped with minor injuries.
