Two young girls, both 12, have been left with injuries - including a broken arm, after a collision between a car and an e-scooter last night. 

The incident saw a huge emergency service response show up at Norton Road in Stockton, just before 5 pm yesterday afternoon (Monday, 10 July) - including the air ambulance.
