A 20-YEAR-OLD woman is fighting for her life in hospital after a crash last night. 

West Yorkshire Police was called to reports of a collision involving two cars at 7.52pm yesterday.

It was on Listing Lane, in Cleckheaton, between the road's junction with Castle Hill Road and Windmill Grove, and Gomersal and Liversedge.

The crash involved a Fiat 500 and a Toyota, both of which were travelling in opposite directions.

A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: "The driver of the Fiat 500 a 20 year old woman has been taken to hospital in a critical condition."

"The driver of the Toyota was taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries."

Yorkshire Ambulance Service and a crew from Cleckheaton Fire Station were also at the scene.

A spokesperson for Cleckheaton said one person from one of the cars was trapped and had to be rescued by ambulance crews, while an individual in the other vehicle walked out of the car on their own.

The fire crew assisted with rescuing the trapped person and made sure the scene was preserved for police.

The road was closed between its junction with Firthcliffe Parade and California Lane.

Police have now issued an appeal following the crash.

They would like to speak to any witnesses of the collision.

Officers are particularly keen to hear from anyone who has dash cam, or CCTV footage, of either vehicle leading up to the collision.
