A cyclist was injured in a crash going down a hill on Portland yesterday.

Police said an accident on High Street, Fortuneswell at around 1.30pm resulted in a cyclist being taken to Dorset County Hopsital, Dorchester for treatment.

The injuries are not believed to be life changing.

The team said special thanks go to members 'of our brilliant NHS' who stopped and provided first aid at the scene of the accident.
