A man has suffered serious injuries after a crash in west Cumbria.
The driver involved in the single-vehicle crash on the B5345 at Sandwith - a man in his 40s - is in a critical but stable condition.
Police say the man's red Audi A3 left the road and ended up in a nearby field shortly after 11.15pm last night.
The road remained closed between the junctions of Mirehouse Road and Byerstead Road until this morning.
Cumbria Constabulary say they are investigating and are appealing for anyone with any information about the crash, or the moments leading up to it, to call 101, referencing incident number 274 of July 1.
