Two people were taken to hospital this Tuesday (7 May) after being involved in a road traffic collision in Ealing.

The police were unable to provide further details of the incident, which occurred just after noon, but residents have reported that a vehicle was seen mounting the pavement near the junction with Balfour Road.

Northfield Pharmacy was closed after the collision after forensics officers investigated the scene.

A London Ambulance Service spokesperson said, “We sent resources to the scene including ambulance crews, a paramedic in a fast response car, and an incident response officer. We also dispatched a team from London’s Air Ambulance by car.

“Our first paramedics were on the scene in five minutes.

“We treated two patients at the scene and took them both to hospital.”
