A BREAKDOWN recovery worker has been seriously injured after being involved in a crash while he was working on a broken down car near Worcester.
It happened at 3.40pm this afternoon on Pershore Lane in Hindlip, and left the man trapped between his breakdown van and the broken down car.
A 4×4 had hit the back of the recovery van which was then shunted into the car he was working on.

An ambulance, a paramedic officer, a senior paramedic officer and the Midlands Air Ambulance from Strensham were sent to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “The critical care paramedics from the air ambulance travelled with the ambulance.
“The drivers of the broken down car and the 4×4, both women, were unhurt.”
