Woman held after car flips close to park

She was held after a Nissan Juke flipped over in Grange Road, Layton, and hit a parked Ford Fiesta this morning.

Police were not immediately able to give details of her age, or what she was arrested on suspicion of.

Officers were called to the street, close to the zebra crossing opposite Kingscote Park, by the fire service at around 5.30am.

Two people inside the upside down Nissan managed to get out, she said, though it is not yet clear whether they were cut free by firefighters or escaped of their own accord.

The road was closed while the car and debris were cleared, with the number five bus service diverted via Westcliffe Drive and St Walburgas Road.

It was reopen by 6.55am, a spokesman for Blackpool Transport said.
