Non-league derby abandoned after air ambulance helicopter lands on the pitch to deal with medical emergency in the crowd... with stricken supporter flown to hospital

Weymouth's Vanarama National League South match with rivals Yeovil Town was abandoned on Saturday.

Weymouth led 1-0 thanks to Dan Roberts' strike in the 32nd minute.

However, the clash was halted in the 75th minute when it emerged a supporter in the 4,712 crowd had taken ill. 

Officials suspended the match when a helicopter had to land on pitch to attend to the fan - who was in the away section - from Bob Lucas Stadium.

The fan was then transported to hospital.

It became clear that the game could not continue and the match was abandoned at 3.35pm after a 42-minute break.
