A woman in her 30s was airlifted to the hospital with serious injuries after the crash and has since been released.
Former Prime Minister David Cameron, who had been shooting nearby, was among the first to arrive at the crash site.

Officers closed the B1108 from the Grade II listed Marlingford Mill to the Watton Road junction for several hours to treat the pair and conduct their investigation.
Geoff Mayer, a chef at the Marlingford Bell, came across Mr Gladman’s crashed car on his way home and attempted to comfort him before calling 999.
He explained, “I was trying to make sense of what I saw as I came around the corner. The Ferrari was clearly visible in the bush. “I was shocked.”
A source close to Lord Cameron told this newspaper that he was “proud” of his security team’s efforts.
Lord Cameron was the Conservative prime minister from 2010 to 2016, when he resigned after losing the Brexit referendum.
He returned to government in 2023, when he was ennobled and agreed to become Rishi Sunak’s foreign secretary.
Please call 101 if you witnessed the crash or saw the driver’s actions leading up to it.
