Man, 88, seriously hurt in lorry crash

An 88-year-old man has been taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries after being struck by a lorry.

The man was hit by a white Scania HGV outside Philip Kirkby Jeweller on the A65 Otley Road, in Guiseley, at about 10:10 GMT, West Yorkshire Police said.

He suffered serious leg and hip injuries, which the force said were being treated as life-threatening due to his age.
