A man and a woman have been pulled to safety by Police after a car ended up in water-filled ditch following a crash on Romney Marsh.

    The collision happened during a period of exceptional demand for the force, with police responding to almost 4,000 emergency calls across the county over three days.

    The woman in the vehicle was given CPR by an attending constable after she was initially unresponsive. She recovered and was taken to hospital.

    The incident happened shortly after 11pm on Friday 7 October 2022 and led to the arrest of the driver on suspicion of drink driving. He has since been released, pending the outcome of further investigation.
