THREE people have been released on bail after a road rage incident saw a car crash into a tree in Basildon.
The A176 Upper Mayne was closed in both directions for almost 12 hours after an incident on Monday night.
A police cordon was also put in place along the Basildon road.
It was due to an incident where a man was injured following a crash.
It was reported a car left the road and collided with a tree following an interaction with another car.
After crashing into a tree, the driver of the second vehicle reportedly drove at the car that had crashed.
As a result, a man was taken to hospital.
Three were then arrested on suspicion of GBH and suspicion of GBH with intent and criminal damage.
