Helicopter crashes on golf course
A helicopter has crashed on part of a golf course in Derbyshire.
The private aircraft came down on Ormonde Fields Golf Club near the A610 in Codnor at about 1535 BST on Tuesday.
The 65-year-old pilot, who lives locally, walked away from the crash and has been taken to the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary with slight injuries.
Police, fire service and paramedics were called to the scene and the area around the craft was cordoned off. There may be delays on nearby roads.
Initial inquiries will be carried out by Derbyshire Police but an investigation into the circumstances of the incident will be carried out by the Air Accidents Investigation Bureau.
