A WOMAN has been cut free from her car this morning after a road crash.

A Fiat Punto and a Vauxhall Corsa came into collision in Hainault Road, at its junction with Eastern Avenue, Little Heath, at just after 8am.

Paramedics feared the woman, thought to be middle aged, had suffered life-changing injuries.

But those fears have been revised, with the woman now in hospital being treated for pain to her lower back.

No other injuries have been reported and the road is now fully open to traffic.
