An air ambulance landed in a school field after it was called to a man who had suffered a fall.

The helicopter was seen at Oasis Academy Isle of Sheppey’s west campus in Marine Parade, Sheerness, this morning after it was called to an address nearby at 10.29am.

A spokesman for the Kent Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance said the patient, an adult male, was assessed at the scene by its paramedics.

He was then taken to a hospital by road in the care of the South East Coast Ambulance.

It is not known what injuries he suffered.
