THREE people are believed to have been injured in a two-car collision at Trimdon, near Sedgefield, County Durham.

Hurworth Burn Road was closed in both directions for two hours following the accident today (Wednesday, October 24) , which involved a Nissan Micra, driven by a woman in her mid fifties from South Shields, and a Ford Ka, driven by a woman in her early twenties from Trimdon Village.

The Ford Ka also contained a young female passenger and a baby boy.

Police were called to the scene just after noon. There were reports of three casualties but police were not able to confirm the extent of their injuries.
