Rescue efforts after car ends up on roof

Emergency Services were called out last night after a vehicle ended up on its roof.

Just after 6pm crews from Kirk Michael, Peel and Douglas Station responded to reports of a single vehicle road traffic collision in the area of Cronk-y-Voddy.

On arrival, the Incident Commander discovered a car was on its roof in a nearby field with the driver still inside.

Crews stabilised the vehicle and then removed the driver’s door - the occupant was then extricated into the hands of paramedics. 

Emergency services were at the scene for approximately 1 hour.
