Builth Wells crane crash: Clean-up operation begins

A clean-up operation has began after a 96-tonne crane toppled into a Powys field and leaked fuel.

Diesel and hydraulic fluid has been "contained" as authorities try to prevent contamination of the River Wye.

The vehicle crashed on the A470 and turned upside down at Erwood Bridge near Builth Wells on Thursday.

The crane driver escaped from the wreckage and was taken to hospital.
