A lorry driver died when a metal structure fell on him as it was being manoeuvred by a crane.

The man had stopped on a slip road of the M62 near Howden Spur in East Yorkshire on Thursday to secure the load which had come loose.

A crane was brought in to help position the large metal structure, but the load became detached and fell on the driver.
