A woman was flung from her wheelchair when the wheel broke after getting stuck in a dropped kerb.

Abbie McMahon, 25, was enjoying a day out in Cambridge when she tried to cross the road.

As she began her descent from a dropped kerb the front wheel of her wheelchair became stuck and snapped off.

Abbie suffered pain along her spine and in her wrist as she hit the ground.

She also had to sit by the side of the road for 40 minutes until her mum and sister were able to pick her up.
