Man hospitalised after two vehicle smash in Follifoot

The man, believed to be in his mid 40s, was travelling in his Ford Fiesta when it collided with a Vauxhall Astra at 8.49 last night (Wednesday 26).

Two fire engines from Harrogate Fire Station attended the crash but found the occupant of the Astra, a male aged approximately 20, out of the vehicle and uninjured prior to their arrival.

However, while the owner of the Fiesta was not physically trapped, he had suffered chest, neck and shoulder pain and, as such, was placed on a spinal board and taken to Harrogate Hospital by an ambulance crew.
