Once freed, the man was taken to Nottingham’s Queen’s Medical Centre by land ambulance with the air ambulance, which landed on nearby Nabbs Park, ultimately not needed.
At the time, the man’s injuries were feared to be life-threatening but he has since made a steady recovery, up to the point where he has now been released from hospital.
Also at the time, police arrested a 15-year-old boy on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, taking a motor vehicle without the owner’s consent and driving without a licence and without insurance.
A police spokesman said: “The investigation is still ongoing and the 15-year-old arrested at the time has had his bail extended.
