Three people taken to hospital after crash on A6 near Rushden

Police, fire and ambulances services, including the air ambulance, were called to the A6 just outside Rushden at 12.25pm today (Monday).

A police spokesman said one person was taken to Bedford Hospital and a further two people were taken to Kettering General Hospital for treatment, although the injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.

The spokesman added: “We are just in the process of organising recovery of the vehicles involved and there’s oil on the road.

“Road closures are in place, which are causing a few problems, so we would urge people to avoid the A6 northbound for a couple of hours.”
