A MAN in his twenties remains in a critical condition in hospital following a two-car collision in Soham last night.

East Anglian Air Ambulance team Dr Neil Berry and paramedic Jemma Varela drove to the scene in the charity’s rapid response vehicle and were joined at the scene by two crews from Soham fire station and a rescue vehicle from Cambridge.

The man, who was found unconscious, was cut free from his car and treated at the scene for a serious head injury before being taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge where his condition was said to be life threatening.

A woman, who was also released from her car by firefighters, was treated at the scene for injuries to her leg and was taken to Addenbrooke’s for further treatment.

The incident took place at 6pm in Military Way, just off of the A142.
