Woman, found injured near two vehicle crash, arrested.

The female driver of one of the cars, a Vauxhall Corsa, was found trapped inside when police arrived at the Ballygasey Road just after midnight on Sunday morning (November 15).

Police said the Corsa had ‘considerable damage’ while the second car, a Vauxhall Zafira, had its driver’s door open and airbags deployed but no driver at the scene.

A PSNI spokesperson said: “A short search of the nearby area was conducted and an 18 year old woman was located with injuries to her leg. She was arrested on suspicion of a number of offences including dangerous driving causing grievous bodily injury, failing to provide a specimen of breath and excess alcohol. The woman was taken for treatment and subsequently bailed and will be interviewed in due course. The driver of the Corsa, a woman in her late teens, sustained a number of fractures to her arms and legs and remains in hospital at this time.
