Prince Philip was breathalysed by police after being involved in a crash on the Sandringham Estate yesterday.

The prince was driving a Land Rover which collided with another vehicle and turned over shortly before 3pm yesterday. Police in Norfolk confirmed that they tested him and the driver of the other car for signs of alcohol intake after the incident. Philip managed to escape the crash uninjured but was reportedly bleeding. He had to be removed from the Land Rover after it flipped following a collision with a Kia. The other vehicle was carrying a two women and a ten-month-old baby. The two women needed hospital treatment but were later discharged.

"It was frightening to see," Roy Warne, an eyewitness, told The Sun. He said that Philip was pulled from the crash conscious but "very, very shocked and shaken." Roy was first on the scene and went to help free the prince from his car. "I looked down and had the Prince’s blood on my hands," he said. "All I could think is, thank goodness there wasn’t more." He said he later heard Philip tell police that he had been "dazzled by the sun" before the collision. In a statement yesterday evening, the palace confirmed that the royal hadn't been injured in the crash.
