A man continues to fight for his life in hospital after three people were injured when three cars crashed in a busy street.
Police shut off Camden Road both ways, near Camden Road station, after a crash yesterday (July 6) at 6.20pm.
The road was closed between Royal College Street and Camden Street.
Metropolitan Police says that a car crashed into street furniture and two cars.
The Ham&High were initially told that three people were in hospital, but their conditions were unknown.
In a new update a spokesperson explained that one man, in his 40s, remains in hospital in a critical condition.
The two other people injured do not have life-threatening injuries.
According to the London Ambulance Service a fourth patient was treated at the scene, but they did not require hospital assistance.
One eyewitness said on Twitter: “Scary stuff as I’d passed the Costa Coffee 30 sec(s) before I heard the loud screech and crash behind me.
“Such a busy area as there were tonnes of people assisting already.”
While a cordon was in place, bus routes including the 29, 253 and 274 were diverted from the area.
There have been no arrests at this time, the Met said.
