Preston school closed after 'serious' collision nearby
A school has been forced to close for the day after a pedestrian was seriously injured in a collision with a vehicle in the road outside.

Parents of pupils at Blessed Sacrament RC Primary have been advised to keep their children at home as emergency services deal with the incident which happened before the school opened this morning.
The collision is believed to have been between a male pedestrian and a vehicle near to the school gates in Farringdon Lane, Ribbleton.
A police spokesperson said: "It is a serious collision right by the school gates and the school has had to be closed as we deal with it. We are advised it will be closed all today.
