Car flips onto side on Scots road as emergency services rush to scene

Emergency services locked down a country road after a car overturned earlier on Friday.

Police, fire and ambulance crews descended on the scene of the crash on a back road adjacent to the A77 near Alloway, Ayrshire, shortly before 10.30am on March 31.

Two fire engines, a fire support vehicle, an ambulance and a police car could be seen close to the junction with the trunk road.

Fire officers could be seen leaning over the white car, which landed on its side, and appeared to be stabilised with a ladder while crews worked to make the scene safe.

A stretcher was deployed at the scene, but an individual could be seen being assisted into the ambulance on foot.

"Appliances attended and left the scene at 11.36am."
