Airbags used to free OAP trapped under car
FIREFIGHTERS used airbags to raise a car after an elderly man became trapped under the vehicle this morning in Headlands Road, Appleton Le Moors, near Kirkbymoorside.
The freed man was then treated by ambulance crews.
Another crew tackled a car fire at a roundabout on the B6265 at Boroughbridge.
No one was in the vehicle, but the car was well alight when the firefighters arrived.
