Two young children were seriously injured in a road traffic accident in Manchester this week.

They suffered multiple injuries after a collision with a car in Bolton, Manchester earlier this week.

Both of the children sustained multiple injuries in the accident and were rushed to specialist hospitals for treatment.

One suffered a broken femur and arm in the collision and was taken to the Royal Bolton Hospital.

The other child sustained damage to her kidney and bruising to her lung and was taken to Booth Hall Children's Hospital. She was put on a ventilator to help her breathe initially, but is now able to breathe on her own.

Neither child is thought to be in a life threatening condition.

A man appeared in court in Bolton yesterday charged with multiple driving offences in connection with the crash.

He was released on conditional bail to reappear at Bolton Magistrates Court later in the month.
