Man Trapped Under Lorry

Two fire crews from Malvern and the Incident Support Unit from Droitwich attended, joining police and ambulance staff at the scene. 


Finding a man with his arm trapped underneath the rear wheel of the lorry, firefighters worked alongside paramedics to stabilise the vehicle and then lift it from the man using high pressure airbags. Once released, the casualty was treated by ambulance staff at the roadside before being taken to hospital.

Crews ensured the lorry was left in a safe condition before leaving the scene at around 10.45am.
