Part of Cowley Road was blocked yesterday morning after a two-car crash.

A red Volkswagen and a blue-grey Ford collided at the junction with Shelley Road at about midnight.

Residents reported a hearing loud bang, followed by car alarms and shouting.

A police officer at the scene said it was believed no-one was injured, although an ambulance was called.

Firefighters inspected both cars and made the scene safe by dealing with spilled fuel.
