A man has died following a single-car RTC this morning.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called to the A38 in Lichfield, near to the Swinfen Interchange roundabout, at 8.53am and sent three ambulances, a paramedic officer, a MERIT trauma doctor with a critical care paramedic and the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance Critical Care Car to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “On arrival we discovered a car that had overturned and four patients.
“One of whom, a man, was found to be in a critical condition. Ambulance staff immediately began administering advanced life support but sadly, despite their best efforts it became apparent nothing could be done to save the man and he was confirmed dead at the scene.
“A second man was assessed and treated for injuries not believed to be serious before being taken to Royal Derby Hospital.
“Two further patients were assessed and discharged at the scene.”
