Firefighters have released a picture of the scene of a crash which led to a busy road being closed for more than three hours.

The A390 between Callington and Liskeard was closed in both directions after a cattle trailer overturned shortly before 10am.


A man in his 60s, who was driving the vehicle towing the trailer, was initially trapped.

Police say he was taken to hospital with what were thought to be minor injuries , and has since been discharged.

The four cows that were inside the trailer escaped following the crash.

The road, which was closed in both directions, was re-opened at lunchtime.

A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Police said that as of 1pm, the cows remained at large.
