Three cars were involved in the crash at Llynclys Crossroads, near Oswestry, shortly after 7pm yesterday.

There has been no confirmation of the severity of any injuries suffered in the crash but West Midlands Ambulance Service has been contacted for comment
The junction, where the B4396 crosses the A483, is extremely busy and is a well-known dangerspot for motorists.
In 2013 the speed limit was reduced from 60mph to 40mph in a bid to reduce the number of crashes.
