AN ambulance on its way to an emergency call was involved in an accident.
The ambulance was driving with blue lights flashing along Old Road, Bwlchgwyn, at 2.30pm on Tuesday when it collided with a Vauxhall Corsa.
The ambulance was on the way to another accident where a Renault vehicle overturned on the A5104 Llandegla to Bryneglwys road.
A woman trapped in the flipped Renault was rescued by firefighters who used cutting equipment to free her.
She was then taken to the Wrexham Maelor Hospital suffering with a knee injury.
A second passenger, a man, was checked over by paramedics.
During the crash between the ambulance and the Vauxhall Corsa, a woman received a leg and arm injury and was also taken to the Wrexham Maelor Hospital.
She had a child with her.
A Welsh Ambulance Service spokesperson said: “An ambulance was involved in a road traffic collision near Gwynfryn on the B5430 at 2.32pm while making its way on a blue light procedure to another accident near Bryneglwys.
More emergency resources were sent straight away to Bryneglwys.“Two ambulances and an officer were sent to the scene at Gwynfryn, a female with a broken arm and a child suffering from shock were taken to hospital.
“Two ambulances attended the scene of the first incident at Bryneglwys, a female with a knee injury and a male were taken to the Wrexham Maelor for a check up.”
Four casualties – described as having minor injuries – were taken to the Maelor Hospital in Wrexham by ambulance following a crash early yesterday morning.
