A six-year-old girl is battling for her life subsequent to a collision involving three cars on a roadway in Bolton.
This young girl was among three individuals sent to the hospital on Saturday night as a result of the incident involving one vehicle.
The victims were riding in a car that was struck when another vehicle veered onto the opposite side of the Chorley Old Road while traveling eastbound.
A third vehicle was pulling out from Avenue Road, which connects to Chorley Old Road in the north-west region of the Greater Manchester area.
Emergency services arrived at the scene of the crash at approximately 10:30 PM on Saturday.
