Police are investigating a second crash on the A468 Caerphilly bypass.

The latest crash happened yesterday at about 4.50pm near the Corbett’s roundabout – less than 10 hours after the first crash.

Gwent Police said a lorry and a Ford Fiesta was involved in yesterday afternoon’s crash and that the 79-year-old male driver of the car had to be taken to hospital.

The elderly car driver was released from hospital last night.
