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.
