The accident, which only involved one vehicle, took place on the A1303 near the American Cemetery, near Madingley, just outside Cambridge, in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The road was closed in both directions for nearly nine hours while crash investigators examined the scene.

The accident involved a silver Peugeot 206, which had four people inside, and police later confirmed that two men had died.
