Five people and a dog have been rescued from floodwater in Hanbury.

Firefighters from Droitwich and Bromsgrove Fire Stations used a rescue sled to help them escape a vehicle stuck in floodwater at about 3.30pm today (Sunday, December 10).

Crews have also rescued people from floodwater in Smite, on the A44 in Doddenham, and in Newland Lane in Droitwich this weekend.

The fire service has issued multiple pleas for motorists not to ignore warning signs and to think twice before driving through floodwater.
