Small plane ‘crashes on dual carriageway’
A light aircraft has crash landed on a dual carriageway in Wales.
Pictures from the scene show smoke sent up into the air, as motorists line up in traffic behind the accident.
Louise Hodges wrote on Facebook: ‘We were watching a glider flying over, must have been just before this happened. The front of the plane looked black and at an odd angle. We wondered if there was something wrong.’
Gwent Police said: ‘Emergency Services are dealing with a Police Incident on the A40 between Raglan and Abergavenny.
‘The road is closed in both directions and diversions are in place which may cause congestion. Please avoid the area if possible and find alternative routes for your journey.’
