A girl from Abingdon tonight remains in hospital in a critical but stable condition following a collision in the town.
Police closed Copenhagen Drive, Colwell Drive and Mons Way after the girl, who was riding a bicycle, was in collision with a white Iveco van.
Police said the girl was 11 years old and from Abingdon and suffered serious head injuries in the incident, which happened shortly after 4.30pm.
Michelle Ullett, a spokesman for South Central Ambulance Service, said: “We got a call at 4.43pm to Copenhagen Drive near the bridge to a report of a road traffic collision involving a cyclist and a van.
“One of our crews treated one female in her early teens for a serious head injury."
The girl is being treated at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital.
