Three men have been killed and two others seriously injured in a two-vehicle crash in Cambridgeshire.

The three dead were in the Toyota along with the two other men, aged 38 and 17, who were seriously hurt.

Two others suffered minor injuries in the crash. The road reopened just before 0300 BST on Friday.

The lorry driver, a 58-year-old man from Essex, was slightly hurt.

The two seriously injured men, both from Wisbech, were taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.
