FIREFIGHTERS freed a man from his car after it hit a bollard and flipped onto its roof in Keighley last night.

Crews from Keighley and Haworth stabilised the white Honda Integra and cut open a door to free the male driver, who was then taken to Airedale General Hospital by ambulance.

A police spokesman said the driver suffered head injuries, although they are not believed to be life-threatening.

The incident happened in South Road, near the junction with Foster Road, just after 10.30pm.

Some vehicles on the forecourt of a Suzuki garage are also thought to have been damaged as a result of the collision.
