Five people have been treated and taken to hospital and a further three have been treated on scene after a two-car RTC in Enville, Staffordshire, last night.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called at 6.32pm to Highgate Common and sent five ambulances, three paramedic officers, our Hazardous Area Response Team (HART), two BASICS emergency doctors and the WMAS Critical Care Car to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said: “On arrival crews discovered eight patients, five of whom were male teenagers, all from the same car.”
“One of them was treated for life-threatening injuries, whilst a second was treated for serious injuries. Both were then conveyed to Queen Elizabeth Hospital.”
“Two were treated for serious injuries before being conveyed to Birmingham Children’s Hospital, whilst the final teenager was taken to New Cross Hospital after receiving treatment for potentially serious injuries.”
“There were three patients from the second car, two women and a man, all of whom were treated for minor injuries and discharged at the scene.”
