An 81-year-old man had to be freed from his car after it was trapped under a lorry following a collision in Tormarton.

The vehicle he was driving collided with the HGV, which was parked in a layby on the A46 near Pennsylvania.

Fire crews had to use air bags to lift the lorry so they could gain access to the car and then used hydraulic cutting equipment to free the man from his vehicle.

    “Yes michelle, the Fire Service.
    Your comment is ridiculous, are you trying to say that old people will only be saved from a car wreck if they have some sort of angel overlooking them?
    You are bonkers my love.”
