A 75-year-old man spent four hours trapped under a ride-on lawnmower near Hawes, emergency services said.

The brigade was alerted just before 19:00 BST, and used a ground anchor and ropes to move the mower off the man.

He was given first aid and taken to hospital by air ambulance. The extent of his injuries was not yet known.
