A woman in her 30's has been left with serious injuries to her spine and pelvis after the car she was a passenger in crashed near Arreton last night (Saturday).
As previously reported by Isle of Wight Radio, emergency services - including the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance - were called to Hale Common at 10.23pm.
The woman was flown to Southampton General Hospital after the silver Ford KA lost control on a downhill sweeping left-hand bend before colliding with a tree.
The driver, a man in his 20s, sustained serious but not life-threatening head injuries and was taken to St Mary's Hospital.
The incident is currently under investigation, and police would like to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen anything.
Perhaps you saw the vehicle in the moments leading to the collision or you have dash-cam footage?
