A 68-year-old man is in a serious but stable condition in hospital following a four-car crash in Caerphilly over the weekend.

The incident happened along the A468, between the Trecenydd and Pwllypant roundabouts, at around 7.25pm on Saturday August 17.

The crash involved a silver Kia Sorento, a red Fiat 500, a blue Toyota Yaris, and a blue Vauxhall Corsa.

The occupants of three of the cars – the Fiat, Toyota, and Vauxhall – were taken to hospital for treatment.

The driver and passenger of the Fiat, and the driver of the Vauxhall, have all since been released.

The driver of the Toyota – the 68-year-old man – remains in hospital.

Two men, believed to be the occupants of the silver Kio Sorento, were arrested on suspicion of multiple driving offences, including causing serious injury by dangerous driving.

Both men, aged 18 from Llanbradach and Treharris, have since been released under investigation.

Gwent Police is investigating the crash and has appealed for witnesses.

Anyone who saw the collision, or who was driving on the road at the time, has been urged to come forward.

Anyone with information, including dashcam or CCTV footage, can contact Gwent Police on 101, quoting log reference 2400276111, or through direct message on social media.
