A MAN escaped injury when his van flipped onto its side in a crash in a Huntingdonshire village this afternoon.

Emergency services were called to Ugg Mere Court Road, in Ramsey Heights, just after 12.30pm to reports of a van on its side close to the church.

The man, in his 50s, was thought to be trapped at first but was helped out. He was treated by a paramedic at the roadside and did not need to go to hospital.
