A two-year-old child is currently in a critical condition following a
collision in the Dodworth area of Barnsley earlier today (Friday 14
September).

Just after 2.20pm, it was reported that a grey Audi A3, travelling along
Whinby Road away from the motorway, crossed on to the opposite side of the
carriageway, for reasons unknown. The Audi has then been in collision with a
white Mercedes Sprinter van and a white VW Transporter van, both travelling
in the opposite direction.

The collision happened between the roundabout from Higham Common Road and
Barnsley Business Park.

A two-year-old girl, a passenger in the Audi, suffered a serious head injury
as a result of the collision. She currently remains in hospital in a
critical condition. A four-year-old boy, also a passenger in the Audi, and
the driver, a 31-year-old woman, both suffered minor injuries.

A 47-year-old man travelling in the VW Transporter van was treated for minor
injuries at the scene. No one else was injured in the incident.

Officers want to hear from anyone who saw what happened, in particular the
driver of a HGV with a plain yellow trailer and the driver of a blue Ford
KA, both travelling towards Manchester at the time of the collision.

If you can help, please call 101 quoting incident number 498 of 14 September
2018.
