A man arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving remains in custody following a serious collision on the A406 at Ilford yesterday.
Emergency services, including air ambulance, were called to the scene just before 2.45pm yesterday to a collision involving two cars and an HGV.
A police spokesperson said: “Two people are still in hospital and are in a stable condition.”
Both patients were taken as priorities to the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel with multiple injuries.
The road was closed in a southbound direction for several hours with queues leading back as far as 10 miles.
