A man was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries this afternoon after his car crashed into a tree.

Two men in their 20s were in a car that crashed at about 5.20pm on the B4437 between Woodstock and Charlbury in west Oxfordshire.

One of the men fractured his pelvis and had to be cut from the wreckage before he was taken by helicopter to Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital.

His passenger sustained neck and chest injuries and was taken to hospital by ambulance.
