A five-year-old child suffered a broken leg, and another child, aged three, has suspected internal injuries, and all four have been taken to hospital along with the driver of a Volkswagen Golf, who also has suspected serious injuries.
Three other children, also in the people carrier, have minor injuries and are being cared for by officers.
