TWO people suffered minor injuries after a crash in Christchurch last night after the vehicle they were travelling in overturned.

Police, paramedics and firefighters were called to Everest Road at around 9pm following the single vehicle collision.

The car – a black Vauxhall Astra – was found to be on its side.

No was trapped, however, and two people sustained only minor injuries.

At least one person was taken to hospital as a precaution.

Officers closed the road while the vehicle was recovered and reopened at around 10pm.
