Two people have been killed and two seriously injured after an ambulance hit a tree in Hampshire.
The incident happened on the A337 Brockenhurst to Lyndhurst road at its junction with New Park at 9.35am.
The driver of the ambulance - a female paramedic - and an elderly male patient travelling in the rear of the vehicle died at the scene.
A male crew member and a male relative of the patient, who were both in the back of the ambulance, suffered serious injuries.
The crew member was airlifted to Southampton General Hospital and the patient's relative was taken by ambulance.
A recovery vehicle at the scene "Next of kin for those involved are in the process of being informed," a police spokesman said.
"The road is expected to remain closed for the rest of the day while collision investigators examine the scene and arrange for the vehicle to be recovered."
Hampshire Police said a man in his 20s - believed to be the driver of a car - was arrested at the scene of the crash on suspicion of causing death by driving without due care and attention.
The double-crewed ambulance belonged to South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SCAS) and was en route to Southampton General Hospital with the elderly male patient.
"South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust is conducting appropriate welfare checks with the families of all involved," a spokesman for the service said.
