Officers injured after driver rams squad car

Two police officers were badly injured when a car rammed into their stationary patrol vehicle.

They are believed to have been talking to a driver they had pulled over when a Ford Focus crashed into both the police car and the Toyota Prius that had been stopped.

The incident happened in Maidenhead, Berkshire, at around 5.30am yesterday. The officers and a teenage girl were taken to hospital where their conditions were described as serious. Two men, both 24 and from the Maidenhead area, were arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
