AN overturned caravan caused delays on the M5 yesterday.

West Midlands Ambulance Service received a 999 call at about 10.05am and sent a rapid response vehicle and paramedic to the northbound carriageway between junction 8 and 7.

Although the caravan had been badly damaged, the 4x4 vehicle puling it had not turned over and the three people inside were uninjured.

An ambulance was not required and none of those involved needed hospital treatment.
