A man was cut free from a vehicle after a crash that closed a key Bristol city centre road. Fire crews from three stations rushed to the scene of the collision on Temple Way yesterday evening (July 28).
Crews from Bedminster, Avonmouth and Kingswood assisted the ambulance service in safely extricating the man. Firefighters had to remove the roof, doors and boot of the car so they could safely remove the man.
On Twitter last night, Bedminster Fire Station reported: "Road Traffic collision in the city this evening with @AFRSAvonmouth and @AFRSKingswood.
