One of the cars ended up side on to traffic and narrowly missed mounting the pavement.

An eyewitness said: "It seems a car had been in some kind of accident and come to a rest horizontally across the road, requiring police to block the passage of other vehicles on that side.

"I'm pretty sure the driver was fine as he stayed nearby and was later removing debris as the car was gradually removed from the road."

West Mercia Police have been contacted for further information.
