The red Mini was empty when emergency services arrived, said PC Daniel Laurie, from the Wiltshire Police Roads Policing Unit.

“From the damage to the vehicle we are concerned that they will need medical attention.

“We have made a number of enquiries including checks with local hospitals and would urge anyone with information to contact us as soon as possible.”
