Date published: 31 May 2010
A MOTOR-CYCLIST broke both legs and an arm in a horror smash in Mossley.
He collided with a Chrysler Voyager, a people carrier, in Manchester Road at 3.15pm yesterday.
Fire-fighters administered first aid, giving oxygen therapy and using a neck collar, before the 26-year-old was taken by ambulance to Tameside Hospital. They said he was in a great deal of pain but did not believe his injuries to be life-threatening. No one else was injured.
The road was temporarily closed while police carried out tests to help calculate what happened.
