A man has died and two people have been seriously injured in a car crash on New Year's Day.

The 31-year-old man was driving a Nissan when it was in a collision with a Renault in Blind Foot Road, Rainford, at about 10:00 GMT.

He was pronounced dead at the scene while a man and woman in the Renault were treated for injuries that are not life-threatening.
