Car ‘falls from Luton Airport multi-storey car park'
A man sustained serious injuries after a car fell from an airport multi-storey car park, police have said.
The incident occurred at London Luton Airport at 11am on Sunday.
Emergency services remain at the scene of the crash.
An airport spokesman said it was a 'single vehicle incident at multi-storey Car Park 1', adding: 'One person has been taken to hospital for further assessment. Airport staff are managing the exit of departing vehicles.
'Arriving vehicles are being redirected to the airport's mid-stay car park until further notice. There is no disruption to wider airport operations.'
Bedfordshire Police said the man's injuries were 'thought to be serious'.
An East of England Ambulance Service spokesman said: 'We were called just before 11am with reports of an incident at a multi-storey car park at London Luton Airport.
'An ambulance, an ambulance officer vehicle, a rapid response vehicle, the Hazardous Area Response Team and the Beds and Herts Critical Care Scheme were sent to the scene. A man was transported to hospital for further care.'
Two years ago a fire engulfed the third floor of the airport's Terminal Car Park 2.
Up to 1,500 cars were affected as flames ripped through the newly built facility in October 2023.
