A road in Swindon town centre was closed following a road traffic collision last night.

Emergency services were called to Faringdon Road at about 10.45pm on Tuesday (5 April).

A cyclist and a car were involved in the crash, with the male rider rushed to hospital.

Wiltshire Police say the man, in his 60s, sustained suspected leg, arm and facial injuries.

Locals reported seeing a significant police presence, with at least five police cars at the incident.
