Kent Fire and Rescue Service was called to a crash in the early hours this morning involving one car and four people near Bad Munstereifel Road in Ashford.

Six fire engines and two height vehicles attended, and crews used various cutting tools and hydraulic rescue equipment to free the casualties. Sadly, one male died at the scene and his next of kin has been informed. Three other males were attended to by HEMS and SECAmb paramedics before being taken to hospital. Kent Police were also in attendance.

Everyone at KFRS is thinking of the family affected at this sad time.
