A man was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries following an incident involving farming machinery in Earith.

The Magpas Helimedix team were flown to Meadow Lane at about 5pm yesterday (Tuesday) following reports that a man, understood to be in his 30s, had suffered serious injuries to his leg.

A spokesman for Magpas said: “The enhanced medical team assessed the patient who had sustained a serious leg injury. They administered advanced pain relief at the scene, providing him with A&E-level care, before airlifting him to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in a stable condition.

“The helicopter crew who flew the medical team and patient were pilot Andy Figg and crew member Lee Kennedy.”

An East of England Ambulance Service paramedic crew was also in attendance.
