FIVE people were injured after their car hit a tree near Leamington Hastings.

They were travelling along the A426 between Dunchurch and Southam in a blue Vauxhall Corsa on Thursday (June 18) when it came off the road at just after 11pm.

Two men were taken to hospital with serious injuries while the other three – another man and two teenage girls – were treated at hospital for injuries that are not life-threatening.

Shortly afterwards, officers arrested an 18-year-old man on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving. He remains in custody.




Enquiries into the collision are ongoing and officers are keen to hear from anyone who was driving along the road or who saw the car and the way it was being driven before the collision.

Anyone with information is asked to report it online quoting incident number 494 of 18 June.
