Police said six vehicles were involved in the crash which saw multiple people suffer minor injuries

The M4 near Slough has reopened after it was closed due to 200 litres of diesel spilling in a crash.

The collision, involving six vehicles, on Tuesday morning closed the motorway between junction 7 and 6 eastbound.

A number of people suffered minor injuries, Thames Valley Police said.

The road needed to be resurfaced. Highways England later tweeted the section of the M4 had fully reopened at about 19:30 GMT on Tuesday.

South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS) said it was called at about 08:40 and three patients were treated at the scene before being taken to Wexham Park Hospital in Slough.
