A road was closed for a number of hours as a car was cut into pieces to rescue the driver inside.
Merseyside Police were called to Thomas Lane in Broadgreen just after 3pm on Friday, April 7, following reports of a crash on the road. Once officers arrived at the scene they found a Nissan Juke rolled onto the driver's side following a two car crash and closed Thomas Road in both directions.
Pictures from the scene show a build up of traffic, ambulances and fire engines on the road. The white Nissan was also seen in the middle of the road, which has had the roof and boot removed, and a number of belongings at the side of the road.
