TWO women had an incredible escape when a wheel and part of the suspension came away from a car they were travelling in on the M27 between Fareham and Cosham.

Emergency services were called to the scene at about 10pm last night.

Fire crews did not have cut to anyone out of the wreckage, but did assist as ambulance crews and paramedics treated the injured.

The women were stretched away from the scene and taken to hospital. The extent of their injuries are not yet known.

One lane was blocked while recovery trucks cleared the wreckage.
