An elderly woman was taken to hospital after being trapped beneath a car.
Witnesses said "sirens and helicopters," swamped the area, after the emergency services were called to the junction of Marine Road and Alderley Road in Hoylake at around 9.30am yesterday (Tuesday, December 20) to reports an elderly woman had been hit by a car.
Arriving on the scene, firefighters found the woman trapped beneath the Ford, and proceeded to free her using hydraulic spreaders. Paramedics then assessed the woman, who was taken to hospital.
