A pedestrian who was reported to have suffered a potentially life threatening head injury during a collision with a milk float in Suffolk, is now in a stable condition in hospital.

The 43-year-old woman had been taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge following the accident in Henderson Close, Haverhill, at around 3.30am on Saturday.

She had been treated at the scene by doctors and paramedics from the Magpas Air Ambulance charity, who also accompanied her by land ambulance to hospital.

The driver of the milk float was uninjured.

Suffolk Constabulary has since confirmed the woman’s injuries were not as serious as first though and she is now in a stable condition.

Police are also issued an appealing for witnesses to the collision to come forward.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Bury St Edmunds Road Policing on 101 quoting CAD 55 of October 28.
