Residents of roads surrounding Udney Park spotted an air ambulance landing on the playing fields this morning.

Keith Atkinson, who lives on Kingston Lane next to Udney Park, said: "Three doctors ran out of the helicopter but as Udney is now fenced they could only get out through a Kingston Lane garden that backed onto Udney.

"They then had to run down the road to a police car in Cromwell Road."
