A person has been hospitalised with life-threatening injuries after a horror smash.
A silver Nissan Qashqai crashed into a parked van on High Street in Airdrie on Saturday evening before continuing on to Aitchison Street where it collided with a red Nissan Qashqai.
999 crews then rushed to the scene at around 8.50pm and the driver of the silver car was taken to hospital.
The driver in the red car was taken to Monklands Hospital for treatment, with the road closed for around eight hours while police carried out investigations.
Now, police are appealing for anyone with information on the serious crash to come forward.
Sergeant John Houston from Road Policing said: “Our enquiries are continuing and I am appealing for anyone who was in the area at the time and who witnessed the crash and hasn’t already spoken to police to get in touch.
“I would also ask anyone who was driving in the area at the time and who may have dash cam footage which could assist us to contact us.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101 quoting incident number 3427 of February 10, 2024.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
