Police are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage following a serious road traffic collision on the A30 on Thursday 28 March.
Officers were called to the two-vehicle collision in the Tedburn St Mary area at around 11am.
The collision involved a white articulated heavy goods vehicle and a black Ford Fiesta.
As a result of the collision, a child, aged four, in the rear of the Ford Fiesta sustained serious injuries and was taken to Bristol Children’s Hospital. She sustained what were considered to be life-threatening injuries but remains in a stable condition. The driver of the lorry was uninjured.
