A horrific road crash has tragically killed four people and left five injured in a major collision in the early hours of the morning.
Shocking images from the scene showed the aftermath which destroyed two vehicles in the middle of a quiet residential street. The crash, which is thought to have involved a car and a taxi, happened at around 12.45am in Deane, Bolton. The front of a Citroen C4 Picasso was completely destroyed with terrifying images showing the bodywork crushed while the right doors of the car were ripped off.
It collided with a red Seat Leon, whose bumper was ripped off in the crash and right side torn apart. Photos from the scene caught the heavy police and emergency service presence while the road was cordoned off.
