TWO teenage girls have been killed and a 14-year-old boy was hospitalised after a horror car crash on Mother's Day.

A 16-year-old and 13-year-old girl travelling in a Vauxhall Corsa, both from Manchester, were tragically pronounced dead at the scene near Lyme Park in Cheshire.

The tragedy unfolded after reports of a serious crash between a Vauxhall Corsa and red Ford Fiesta.

Two passengers travelling in the Corsa, a 14-year-old boy and a 21-year-old woman, were taken to hospital but their injuries are not believed to be life threatening.

The driver of the Corsa, an 18-year-old man from Cheadle, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

He was also taken to hospital for further checks.

While the driver of the Ford Fiesta, a 20-year-old woman, sustained minor injuries and was taken to hospital for further checks, but her injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

Cops sealed off the A6 between Light Alders Lane and Carr Brow in High Lane following the Sunday morning tragedy.

The closure was in place for a number of hours as collision investigation work could be seen taking place.

Cops are now appealing for anyone who witnessed the collision or anyone who has knowledge of the movements of the cars that night.

Officers urged anyone with dashcam or CCTV footage from around the time of the collision to come forward.
