'Our police officers have seen it all. They struggled for words because of this'

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers 'struggled for words' after attending a crash on the region's roads.

Police officers have 'pretty much seen it all', said the force, but they 'struggled for words' while assisting a driver out of an ambulance following a crash. The driver took a test on suspicion of drink driving and the result was more than four times over the drink drive limit.

"The harrowing part: Three small children found in the car - mercifully - unhurt," read a social media post from GMP's traffic unit.
