A woman has been taken to hospital after a car crash on a busy road in Oldham prompted a huge emergency presence. 

At around 1.40pm on Saturday, Greater Manchester Police were called to a report of a car crash on Huddersfield Road.

A photograph of the scene shows a car had been flipped onto its roof while emergency services, including Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue (GMFRS) and police, were at the scene.

In a statement, GMP said: "Emergency services attended the scene, and a woman has been taken to hospital for treatment.

"The injuries sustained are not thought to be life-threatening."

GMFRS was approached for comment.
