AN AIR ambulance was called out after a pensioner fell through a greenhouse and cut his arm.

A land ambulance and St John's Ambulance crews also treated the 69-year-old man after the incident in West Kingsdown on Tuesday (August 2).

The air ambulance landed in a field 500m away and took him to King's College Hospital in London because it was thought he may have needed specialist treatment.

King's College Hospital would not confirm if the man was still in hospital.
