Two drivers have been punished following a five-vehicle crash in Middlesbrough that say a house damaged yesterday evening.

 Emergency services were called to Parliament Road, at its junction with Union Street and Longford Street, after a collision on Friday evening. 

A cordon was erected across the street while a flurry of police, ambulance, and fire crews dealt with the incident, taking two people to hospital, and assessing a nearby home for damage.

One driver, a 25-year-old man, had been summoned to court for driving without a license and driving without insurance. 

The other driver, a 67-year-old man, was issued with a Traffic Offence Report for driving without due care and attention.

Pictures from the scene show two damaged vehicles as well as the front of a property, which the police confirmed was damaged in the incident. 

Other images also show the damaged cars being recovered, while a large group of people watch from behind the blue and white police tape. 

A spokesperson from Cleveland Police said: "Police attended a report of a collision on Parliament Road, Middlesbrough, just after 7pm on Friday, August 30.
