Several injured in crash
Multiple people have been injured in two separate crashes on the M5 in Devon.
Drivers are facing major distruption this morning as the motorway is closed in both directions between Cullompton and Tiverton.
A helicopter reportedly landed at the scene of the collisions.
Some motorists have been stuck in their cars for hours and National Highways says "the road will likely remain closed for some time."
Traffic is building up around Willand, Cullompton and villages as diversion routes were stacked during the morning rush hour.
