PARAMEDICS were called after a two-car smash in Kirby Cross.

The cars collided in Frinton Road, between the Halstead Road and Holland Road junctions, just before 9am this morning.

An ambulance and a rapid response car were sent to the scene and paramedics treated the two adults and two children who had been in the cars.

No one was badly injured and they were not taken to hospital.

The road was partially blocked while the crash scene was cleared.

It was reopened at about 10am.
