EMERGENCY services are at the scene of a three car crash on the A12 at Glemham.

THE A12 is now clear after a three car crash at Glemham caused severe tailbacks this evening.

Emergency services were called to the scene of the collision at about 6.17pm where police officers discovered the accident between a Ford Focus, Vauxhall Vectra and a Nissan Micra.

Two male casualties are believed to have sustained minor elbow and back injuries in the accident, and paramedics are on scene assessing them.

The vehicles have been recovered from the road and a Suffolk police spokesman said it had been necessary to call in the Highways Agency after a small amount of oil was spilt on the road.

The incident caused tailbacks on the stretch of road which is not dual carriageway.

The road was cleared by 8.20pm.
