A motorcyclist has been taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries following a crash on a major road in Cornwall.

The rider of the motorcycle, a man in his 70s from the Redruth area, sustained serious, life-threatening injuries and was taken by air ambulance to Derriford Hospital in Plymouth, the force added.
