The air ambulance was called to Ashford yesterday after a teenager fell and hurt himself in a woodland area.

Emergency services were called to The Warren, in Warren Lane, at around 4pm to a report that a 15-year-old boy had accidentally fallen from a rope swing.

The Kent Air Ambulance landed in field next to the wooded area to assist the teenager.

It is believed the boy suffered head and upper arm injuries.

He was taken to the William Harvey Hospital by land ambulance.
