Police are appealing for witnesses to a road crash which has left one man seriously ill. 

An Essex Police spokesman said: "The collision happened in Shalford Road, Panfield, when the driver of a blue Honda Prelude appears to have lost control of the car while travelling along Shalford Road shortly after 8pm on Wednesday and struck a tree.

"The driver and three occupants were conveyed to Broomfield Hospital after sustaining a variety of injuries.

"One of the four men was later transferred to Cambridgeshire’s Addenbrookes Hospital.

"The casualities at Broomfield Hospital have either been discharged or remain there in a stable condition.

"The man at Addenbrookes Hospital remains in a stable condition.

"At this stage, police are still trying to ascertain the details of all four men.

Investigating Officer, Pc Andy Sumner, said: "As well as appealing for witnesess to the actual crash, we’re also keen to identify the driver of a Fiat Punto who was seen with or near the blue Honda when the crash happened. They are crucial, key witnesses.”

Anyone with information in connection with this crash is urged to contact investigating officers at Dunmow Road Policing Unit on 101 or email 2759@essex.pnn.police.uk
