Two teenagers are fighting for their lives after a collision in Blackley on Saturday night

A silver Volvo S40 turned onto Rochdale Road at the junction with Hilldale Avenue and collided with a silver Renault Clio that had been travelling on Rochdale Road. The Clio then collided with a grey Ford Mondeo and a silver VW Polo.

The driver of the Renault Clio, aged 17, was taken to hospital where he is being treated for serious head injuries.

The passenger, a 19-year-old woman, was taken to hospital where she is being treated for multiple fractures and is in a serious condition.

The drivers of the other cars received minor injuries.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the collision to come forward.

“I am particularly interested in anyone who may have dashcam footage of either the collision or the vehicles involved to contact police as they may hold vital information.”
