A MAN had to be treated by paramedics after plastic pipes, which he was helping to unload from a lorry in Chippenham, fell on his legs.
Firefighters managed to lift the pipes and free the man on Hill Corner Road at 8.16am this morning before he was taken to the Royal United Hospital in Bath by paramedics. Officers also helped manage the traffic.
Wiltshire Council and the Health and Safety Executive have been informed of the incident and will be investigating.
