Essex Police were called to a serious collision in Epping Road, North Weald.

The incident was reported shortly before 10.30pm last night (Friday 11 April), and involves a silver Mercedes car.

Four people have been taken to hospital for treatment.

Witnesses at the scene confirmed that the Mercedes may have been travelling alongside, or in convoy with, what’s described as a small silver or light-coloured car.

That car was not present at the collision site.

Essex police are therefore trying to track down the vehicle.

Police are appealing to the public for more information to aid their investigation.

They're keen to hear from any eye-witnesses, anyone with dashcam footage or drivers who encountered either of the cars around that time yesterday.
