THREE men were able to walk free from a car which left the road and hit a tree on a country lane in Riseley in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Fire crews from Wokingham Road and Whitley Wood fire stations were called to the accident just outside the village on Chequer Lane at around 2am.

According to the fire service, three men were inside the Ford KA which left the road and collided with the tree, before ending up in a ditch.

Although the front windscreen was completely smashed, all three men were able to get out of the vehicle where they were later treated by an ambulance crew.
