Two people were taken to hospital and a main road into Shrewsbury was closed after a collision involving a lorry today.

The collision, which also involved another vehicle, happened along the A5 near Bicton at about 12.45pm.

A spokesman for West Mercia Police said the crash had happened between the Edgebold and Woodcote Islands.

He said the road had been closed by police because of a large diesel spillage but the people involved were believed to have suffered only minor injuries.
