A spate of accidents around the Island saw the emergency services deal with three incidents on Saturday after noon and evening.

Bridge Road in Ballasalla was closed for around six hours last night while the Manx Utilities Authority carried out repairs after a crash there, while the Mountain Road had to be shut for an hour following a crash at Brandywell.

Fire crews from Peel and Douglas stations were sent to a crash at Glen Helen shortly before 6pm, after the driver freed himself from his overturned vehicle.

No serious injuries were reported at any of the accidents.
