  8. Northumberland Road crash: Latest from the scenepublished at 08:55 British Summer Time 12 October 2018

    BBC South Today

    The scene of the collision is behind the normal police tape here on Northumberland Road, with a couple of officers manning the road blockage.

    What we know is that a man has been taken to hospital with life threatening injuries. It's pretty somber around here today, people are clearly taking what has happened very seriously.

    This whole segment which has been cordoned off is outside Reading girls school - although the incident is nothing to do with children from the school.

    There are three other schools on this road, so it's causing quite a lot of disruption on day-to-day life. The school will be closed for the whole day.

    There's not a lot of activity inside the cordon, but the road is set to stay closed for several hours.
