Two police officers were taken to hospital after a taxi crashed into the back of their vehicle.

Leicestershire Police were called to the scene of the crash on the A563 Troon Way at about 02:00 BST on Sunday.

The taxi driver was taken to hospital with minor injuries, while the officers were also sent to hospital to be checked over.

The road was closed at the crossroads with Nicklaus Road and the roundabout with Barkbythorpe Road for nine hours.

And if the police weren't involved, it would have been 9 minutes at most.

what gets me is that it's a dead straight bit of road so how you can miss a police car in front of you god only knows ( leicester northern ring road) unless of course the police car pulled out in front of him and the road closure was for the investigation officers to try and find some way of blaming the other driver. :-k
