Emergency services scrambled to the scene of a two-car smash in Reddish on Sunday evening (April 10) that saw a BMW plough into a garden hedge. The incident happened on Farley Way, at around 6pm.
A witness at the scene told the M.E.N that they saw the white car speeding along the long stretch of road, which has a limit of 30mph through a built up area, before the crash took place. Another person said that cars 'regularly speed up and down' Longford Road West and added that they were 'really worried' about their young children who often play out in the area.
Recovery vehicles were snapped at the scene, as well as ambulance vehicles from the North West Ambulance Service and the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service. A large police cordon was erected temporarily, blocking off the section of road and with the junction of Farley Way as residents watched on from outside the police tape.
