This is posted on NY Post a website owned by Rupert Murdoch the same person who owns Fox News. It uses a misleading headline saying "car crash injuries" which actually means a similar type of injury you'd get in a car crash but most people would read it thinking that a car crash was somehow involved in the story despite there not being cars anywhere in the story.

Here's a more reputable source for the same story: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-63649144
