A male has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after four Met Police officers were injured in a collision in Southwark yesterday (20th Oct) afternoon.

The fifth officer was injured during the subsequent arrest.

One of the officers remains in a serious condition with potentially life-changing injuries. Their next of kin have been informed.

Another officer remains in hospital with injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.

The two other officers who were injured have since been discharged from hospital with minor injuries.

The incident happened at around 13:30 hours yesterday (20th October) in Draycott Close near to the junction with Edmund Street, SE5.

The driver of the vehicle that struck the officers, a man aged in his 20s, was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

The male has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

Another man who was also in the vehicle is believed to have fled the scene. Enquiries to locate him are ongoing.

Detectives from Central South CID are investigating, supported by colleagues from the Roads and Transport Policing Command.

Anyone who witnessed the incident is asked to call 101 ref CAD 3656/20 Oct. Alternatively tweet @MetCC, or contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

We use our frontline experiences to help inform the general public about the realities of serving in the emergency services, armed forces and NHS.

We would like to thank you in advance for your continued support.

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of our readers.

And remember, if you have a service, product or job vacancy that you would like to promote to our large readership, then you can buy advertising space in our articles.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
