A WOMAN has died after a crash between a lorry and a car in Ledbury.
Emergency services were called to Ross Road, A449, just before 3.35pm today (Friday).
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said the driver of the car suffered serious injuries and whilst ambulance staff worked to administer emergency care she deteriorated and went into cardiac arrest.
She was also given advanced life support which continued while she was being rushed to Hereford Hospital.
Sadly, despite best efforts, nothing could be done to save the woman and she was confirmed dead shortly after arriving in A&E.
A woman, who is believed to be in her 60s, was also a passenger in the car. She was treated for a fractured arm before she was immobilised with a neck collar and spinal board and was taken to Hereford Hospital in an ambulance.
The lorry driver was uninjured and did not require hospital treatment.
Two ambulances and a paramedic support officer, a community paramedic, BASICS doctor and an Midlands Air Ambulance, from Strensham, attended the scene.
