An elderly woman sustained life-changing injuries in a crash in Swindon on Monday (24 April).

Emergency services were called to a three-vehicle collision on Drakes Way at around 4.30pm.

A black Hyundai i10 had been travelling on Queens Drive and entered the roundabout.

It is reported that a blue coloured van cut in front of the car, causing them to leave the roundabout onto a concrete area and collide with a white Ford Transit waiting to enter the roundabout.

A woman, aged in her 80s, suffered life-changing injuries and is being treated in hospital.

The victim’s family claim the driver of the blue van – which allegedly caused the collision – failed to stop following the incident.

If you saw what happened or can help with our enquiries, please call Wiltshire Police on 101 quoting reference number 54230042971.
