A man is believed to have been hit by a train in Deeside.

Emergency services, including four North Wales Police vehicles, a road ambulance and Wales Air Ambulance were dispatched to Cestrian Street, Connah’s Quay, at about 5pm on Wednesday.

Rail incident officers were also on location while the Air Ambulance landed at the cricket pitch nearby.

Arriva Trains Wales tweeted that services on the Chester to Llandudno line would be delayed after a person was hit by a train near Shotton.

It is thought that a man was transferred by road to hospital at just after 6pm.
