A 47-year-old man crashed his microlight aircraft into a field outside of Brits in the North West and died.

When paramedics arrived on the scene the man was in critical condition.

He sustained injuries to his head, chest, as well as broken bones.

He was airlifted to a nearby hospital and paramedics tried to stabilise his condition on the way to hospital but they were unsuccessful.

The hospital trauma unit staff declared him dead.
