A woman is in hospital with a broken back following a "serious" two car motorway crash.
Cheshire Police were called to the M6 northbound at junction 17, Sandbach, at 7.06pm on Friday, May 19, following reports of a crash. Once officers arrived at the scene they found a black Volkswagen Golf and a blue Renault Megane has crashed on the motorway.
Following the collision the Renault smashed into the central reservation of the carriageway. The driver, a 70-year-old woman from Port Sunlight, Wirral, and the passenger, 63-year-old woman from Stafford, sustained serious but not life-threatening injuries and were taken to Leighton hospital for treatment.
