Two people including a 'good Samaritan' received serious injuries in a traffic incident in Crawley yesterday afternoon (August 10).

A 71-year-old pedestrian was badly hurt when he was in collision with a car that had left the road in Broadfield Drive.

It is believed that the driver of the Volkswagen Passat may have suffered a medical episode before the incident at 4.34pm.

But, when another motorist stopped to assist, he too suffered serious injuries when the vehicle moved again as he was trying to help. 

Both the driver of the Passat, who suffered minor injuries and the assisting motorist were taken to the East Surrey Hospital in Redhill.

The pedestrian was taken to the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton.

Sussex Police has begun an investigation, and is appealing for witnesses to report online or call 101 quoting Operation Dunmere.
