A car crashed into a house this afternoon, sparking an emergency response.

Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance was tasked to the scene near Calne shortly after 12.30pm following reports the driver was trapped inside the vehicle.

The Street in Cherhill was closed in both directions whilst emergency services work at the incident.

Three fire crews from Chippenham, Devizes and Trowbridge attended the scene.

A spokesperson for Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “Fire crews from Chippenham, Devizes and Trowbridge responded to a road traffic collision involving a car which had driven into a house with the driver trapped, in The Street in Cherhill.

“However, the driver managed to free themselves with the assistance of ambulance crews before the fire service arrived, so firefighters made the scene and the vehicle safe.

“The casualty was left in the care of the ambulance service.”
