A man is in a critical condition in hospital after being hit by a lorry on the A46 in Warwickshire.

The pedestrian, in his 40s, suffered serious injuries in the crash just before 03:00 GMT on Saturday morning, Warwickshire Police said.

Road closures are in place on the A46, between the Oversley roundabout and Stratford Road, the force added.

Motorists were urged to avoid the area as the section of road were "likely to be closed for some time".
