A man has been run over by a construction digger on a busy north London high street.

A forensic tent is in place in front of the Volvo vehicle on Kilburn High Street after the crash around midday on Thursday.

Pictures from the scene show police erecting a cordon outside a Franca Manca on the corner of Belsize Road.

The yellow construction vehicle with a mechanical claw at the front stopped at the scene.
