Three people were taken to hospital with serious injuries, and one person remains in a life-threatening condition.

Detective Sergeant Shona Birkby from Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit said: “This was a very serious incident and our thoughts are with those involved.   

“We are working to gather as much evidence as possible to establish the circumstances around the collision.

“We’re particularly interested to hear from anyone who was travelling along the A421 at that time and has information or dashcam footage that may support our investigation.”

Anyone with information is asked to report online or call 101, quoting Operation Alma.
