A VAN flipped on its side in a "nasty" early hours crash outside a Stourbridge hotel.

The van crashed with a blue Audi on Birmingham Street outside the Premier Inn at 1.15am this morning (Sunday August 7).

Police set up a cordon at the scene and are investigating the incident.

West Midlands Fire Service said no-one was left trapped in the vehicles or needed freeing and firefighters left the matter with West Midlands Police.

The van which had rolled over had a 'Premier' logo on its bonnet.

It was left lying on the road, while the Audi had was left across the pavement and in a hedge, with its bonnet and boot lifted up.

Stourbridge Fire Station tweeted: "Busy night for White Watch including this RTC. Working closely with @WMPolice @OFFICIALWMAS.

"A reminder to drive safely and observe speed restrictions.

"Drive safely everyone. #wmfs #RoadSafety #DriveSafe "

 

 

A West Midlands Police spokesperson said: "We were called about a crash at 1.15am on Sunday 7 August on Birmingham Street, Stourbridge between a car and a van.

"The investigation is ongoing."

Former councillor Nicolas Barlow tweeted: "Good grief, that's nasty.

"Unsurprising, sadly, given the speed people drive along, and off, the Ring Road; areas around Wollaston village is just as bad."
