Police have launched a witness appeal after a pedestrian suffered 'potentially serious injuries' in a crash with a vehicle on a shop car park. An air ambulance landed as part of the emergency services response to Sunday afternoon's collision outside the Co-op on Knypersley Road, in Norton.

The man was trapped under a white Hyundai i10 following the crash, which happened at around 12.05pm. Paramedics treated him at the scene before taking him to the Royal Stoke University Hospital. The collision resulted in the closure of Knypersley Road.

A Staffordshire Police spokesman said: "We are appealing for witnesses following a collision between a car and a man on a shop car park in Stoke-on-Trent. We were called at 12.15pm on Sunday, to reports of a pedestrian trapped under a white Hyundai i10 outside the Co-op on Knypersley Road, in Norton.

"West Midlands Ambulance Service, Midlands Air Ambulance and Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service also attended. The man was taken to hospital by road ambulance with a leg injury not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.

"The driver of the Hyundai stayed at the scene to help us with our enquiries. Anyone in the area at the time with information, including dashcam, or CCTV footage, is asked to contact."

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: "We were called to Knypersley Road to reports of a man who had been involved in a low-speed road traffic collision. The man sustained potentially serious injuries and received treatment at the scene before being conveyed by land ambulance to the Royal Stoke University Hospital for further care."

Woman's brand new car completely wrecked - hours after selling her old vehicle
Dashcam footage shows the moment a woman's brand new car was completely wrecked - hours after she sold her old vehicle. Adele Gough, 34, was running errands and had just come off Swindon's Magic Roundabout when a car hit her. Footage shows Adele driving along Country Road on the A4289 when a black vehicle suddenly veers off its side of the road and smashes into her brand new car. The collision destroyed the car and Adele spent the night in hospital with severe bruising around her lower stomach and whiplash on the back of her neck. Adele had purchased the MG Motor car less than a month prior and had only sold her old car earlier that day. She didn't press charges but she submitted an insurance claim which she hopes will cover the cost of her car - £4,499.

Watch: I cycle to work every day – this is how Lime bikes ruin my journey
Every morning, I strap on my helmet and don a dazzling silver jacket to begin a perilous journey down the A2 – or, as it is otherwise known, My Commute to Work. I live in New Cross, in south-east London, and, to get to my office in Victoria, I traverse various boroughs to cover seven miles of the city by bike. Lately, I’ve strapped a GoPro camera on too, to record the idiocy I see.

UK’s rarest cars: 1990 Rover 213 SX, the only one left
Strange as it may seem, the SD3-series Rover was once a controversial car – one that caused apoplexy among certain enthusiasts of the quintessentially British marque. Today, you are more likely to see a Rover 200 in a repeat of Keeping Up Appearances than on the road; indeed, Aaron Marrs’ 1990 213 SX is believed to be the sole roadworthy example.
