An eight-year-old has suffered serious injuries in a multi-vehicle crash.

Two vans and a grey BMW were involved in the crash in Hoe Benham, West Berkshire, on the B4000 near the junction with High Street at about 16.30 BST on Saturday.

The child suffered serious injuries and was taken to hospital, where they remain, Thames Valley Police said.
