A driver was taken to hospital early today after he lost control of his vehicle near a Hampshire village.

The victim crashed his Nissan car which rolled and ended up in a ditch in Poles Lane, Otterbourne, at about 2am.

He was able to get out of the wreckage but unable to confirm to police whether he was the only occupant of the vehicle.

Eastleigh firefighters used their heat-seeking camera to examine the vehicle and surrounding undergrowth but no one else was detected.

The man’s injuries are said to be not life threatening.
