AN 83-year-old man has been taken to hospital with potentially life-threatening injuries after a crash in Eynsham.

Paramedics took the man, who suffered serious chest injuries, to the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, following a crash involving four cars in Acre End Street at 4.30pm today.

A grey Daewoo clipped the wall of a house and ended on on its side. An elderly woman was cut free from a car by firefighters and treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Police closed the road to remove the debris and have launched an investigation into the cause of crash.
