A BIKER in his 20s suffered leg and arm injuries in a crash on a Darlington industrial estate.

A section of Valley Street North at the junction with Chesnut Street was cordoned off as emergency services dealt with the aftermath of the collision between a Renault van and a Kawasaki motorcycle.

It happened just before 4pm on Monday and police, fire and ambulance crews were in attendance.

A spokeswoman for Durham Police said the biker, a 29-year-old man, suffered leg and arm injuries and was taken to James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough for treatment.
