A MAN was taken to hospital with serious injuries after falling 25ft from scaffolding.

The accident happened in Bedworth at 11.50am yesterday, at the back of a property in Saunders Avenue.

The man, believed to be in his 50s, is thought to have also hit a garden wall during his fall of about 25ft.

Two ambulances and a senior paramedic officer were sent to the scene and he was taken to the University Hospital in Walsgrave with serious chest, shoulder and spinal injuries.

The news comes after another incident in which a Whitefriars worker was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries after falling 30ft from a ladder in the Tile Hill area of Coventry on Monday.
