A man has sadly died, and two others taken to hospital, after a collision in Erdington this morning.
West Midlands Ambulance Service was called at 2.17am to Tyburn Road and sent three ambulances, two paramedic officers and a MERIT trauma doctor with critical care paramedic to the scene.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman says: “On arrival, crews found one car had come off the road, hit a tree and rolled onto its roof.
“The driver, a man, was in a critical condition.
“After being removed from the car with the assistance of fire colleagues, medics immediately began administering advanced life support but sadly, despite everyone’s best efforts, he could not be saved and was confirmed dead at the scene.
“A second man was treated by ambulance staff for serious injuries whilst a third patient, also a man, was treated for potentially serious injuries.
“Both were conveyed under emergency conditions to Queen Elizabeth Hospital for further treatment.”
