By Neil Speight 13th Oct 2020

POLICE have reported the man cut free from a crash scene that blocked the A13 for several hours yesterday (12 October) is recovering in hospital.

The man was extracted from the mangled wreckage of a car shoved underneath a HGV by another lorry in a multi vehicle collision.

Police originally reported two people had been seriously injured but have now confirmed it was just one.

A statement says: "We were called to reports of a collision on the Londonbound A13 at the junction with the M25 at around 6.45am.

"A car and a lorry had been in collision.

The driver of the car was taken to hospital but his injuries are not considered to be life-threatening or life-changing.

"The road was closed while we investigated but was re-opened at around 1pm.
