A pregnant woman killed in a crash in Eltham was taken to a major trauma centre as 'a priority' before her death, it has been revealed.
The 38-year-old was one of four people taken to hospital for treatment following the crash on the A20 by the junction with Kidbrooke Park Road.
Patients included two police officers who had been in an unmarked police car at the time of the incident at 6.15pm on October 17.
An incident response officer, Hazardous Area Response Team (HART) and London's Air Ambulance were dispatched to the scene.
A spokesperson said: “Our crews treated four patients at the scene.
"We took a pregnant woman and two police officers to a London major trauma centre by road, all as a priority.
"A male patient was also taken to a local hospital by road, as a priority.”

She said: "Her vehicle was hit and it rolled over three times.
“It’s so sad. I never saw so many police and ambulance before.”
