A man in his 60s has died and another has been seriously injured in an industrial accident.

Both workers were involved in the incident at the outer harbour site in Great Yarmouth at about 11:00 BST.

Norfolk Police earlier said both men were seriously injured and taken to hospital but it has since emerged that one of the men died at the scene.

The injured man, who is in his 40s, was taken to the James Paget Hospital in Gorleston.

Officers are still on site and the Health and Safety Executive has been informed, police said.

Samantha Vanderpal, who lives close to the site, earlier said: "They have been dismantling some gas rigs there and the emergency vehicles seem to be congregating around those."
