A 10-year-old girl has suffered serious injuries in a crash on the M25.

The child was airlifted to hospital after the collision on the anti-clockwise carriageway between junctions five and six, near Oxted in Surrey, at about 15:40 BST on Monday.

Police said only one vehicle, a silver Mini, was involved in the crash and the road was closed for several hours.

The 45-year-old driver and a 14-year-old boy were treated for minor injuries.

Police said all three were members of the same family.

On Tuesday, the injured girl remained in hospital in a serious condition.

South East Coast Ambulance Service and an air ambulance were sent to the scene to provide medical treatment at the roadside.

A spokesman for the force said: "No arrests have been made in connection with the collision and enquiries remain ongoing."
