The road was clear by 8.40pm.

A Guernsey Police spokesman said a statement about the incident would be issued shortly.

Today, two cars collided on a busy junction at lunchtime.

The incident happened just after 1pm at the Le Chene traffic lights on Forest Road.

It appeared that a white van had exited Rue des Morts - the road up from Petit Bot - as a grey car drove west along Forest Road. Both vehicles were very badly damaged.
