Police car involved in Killinghall collision
A police car was involved in a two-vehicle crash in Killinghall today in which both drivers were taken to hospital.
North Yorkshire Police said it was contacted at 3.45pm today about a collision between a white Hyundai car and a police car on Otley Road.
It is believed the incident occurred at the junction with Grainbeck Lane.
The police statement said:
"Emergency services attended the scene. No serious injuries have been reported, but both drivers of the vehicles have attended hospital with minor injuries.
"Road closures were put in place between Lund Lane and Otley Road, to allow officers to determine the circumstances around the collision and to enable the vehicles to be recovered. These have now been lifted and the road is now open."

"While the police car involved will have audio and video recordings of the collision, officers are still keen to hear from any other witnesses who saw the collision and/or recorded dashcam footage."
