A quiet north Manchester street descended into scenes of 'chaos' on Sunday afternoon, after a van ploughed into a group of pedestrians before smashing into a garden wall - leaving two women seriously injured.
Emergency services scrambled to the scene, on Turks Road, Radcliffe, shortly after 2pm on Sunday (May 15) to reports of a collision between the vehicle and four pedestrians. When police and paramedics arrived, horrified neighbours were already desperately trying to help.
Police since confirmed that four people were taken to hospital, with two women aged 41 and 54 suffering 'potentially life changing injuries'. A man and young girl were also taken to hospital with what are thought to be minor injuries.
