Four people were also treated at the scene and it’s understood a car narrowly avoided hitting a woman with a pram.
The eyewitness said: “Three police cars, three ambulances, an unmarked cop car and a police van are at the corner of high street and Bell Street. A car was speeding down Bell Street before it hurtled onto High Street and spun, hitting a taxi and colliding with other cars.
“A black Ford Fiesta was up on pavement and a black taxi has hit a white car that was parked on pavement. A woman pushing a pram as she walked by narrowly avoided being hit and looked badly shaken. Three men, understood to be in the vehicles, were seen being led into an ambulance.”
