Updated 9.47pm - Man seriously injured

A 21-year-old man has been rushed to hospital following a car crash this afternoon in Mrieħel. 

The man, a resident of Qormi, was injured after he appeared to have lost control of his Peugeot 607 which smashed into a tree in Triq Notabile. The impact was so hard that the engine was dislodged from the vehicle, with debris ending up on both lanes. A Toyota Vitz was also hit in the crash. 

Civil Protection personnel and an ambulance were called to assist the man.

Police said the man is seriously injured. An investigation is underway.
