A 102-year-old man has been treated in hospital after spending three nights stuck on his roof.

Ron Easton had apparently climbed up his roof to adjust his TV aerial, but got stuck after falling over.

He was found lying face down on a garden rake on top of his house in Bigbury-on-Sea.

A friend called 999 after noticing three unopened milk bottles outside his house.

The Ambulance Service has confirmed that Mr Easton remains in a stable condition.
