Firefighters had to cut two people free from the wreckage of their vehicle after a two-car crash on Leicester's inner ring road last night.
Four fire crews battled for an hour to release the front seat passenger of one of the cars at the accident which happened at the junction of Highcross Street and Vaughan Way at about 9.08pm.
A back seat passenger in the same vehicle had been released after half an hour.
Both injured people were taken to Leicester Royal Infirmary.
Two other people injured in the incident were treated at the scene by paramedics.
Highways Agency staff cleared the road of 40 litres of fuel, oil and coolant.
