A van driver is to face a Parish Hall enquiry after colliding with a car in town, leading an elderly man to need hospital treatment.

Emergency services were called to the crash involving two pensioner-age drivers near Minden Place around 12:14.

The road was closed as members of the Fire and Rescue Service tried to get the occupants out of their vehicles, with commuters diverted up Halkett Place past the library.

A male passenger in the Renault Megane was taken to the hospital to be treated for injuries, which were described as “not life-threatening or changing”.

The driver of the Nissan also suffered “minor” injuries.
