Three crashes within minutes led to A11 closure

Three separate crashes involving four vehicles were behind the closure of a major road.

Norfolk Police shut the A11 in Norfolk in both directions from about 03:30 BST between Wymondham and Spooner Row on Sunday.

Officers said they received reports of a crash at 02:13 at Wymondham, after a Honda Civic crashed into the central reservation barrier, with a grey BMW sports car hitting it soon afterwards.

A third crash happened minutes later at the same location and involved a white Mercedes lorry and a red Mazda CX-5, police said.
