Woman, 82, left seriously injured by car crash near Malton

The injured woman, who was inside the Honda, was taken to York District Hospital by ambulance where police said she remains in a serious but stable condition.

The Honda was being driven by a 60-year-old woman towards Malton and the Vauxhall by a 29-year-old man in the direction of Hull when the collision happened at around 5.30pm on Saturday (July 28).
