Motorists were warned that road closures would be in place while emergency services responded to the incident.

“There were two occupants on board who will be assessed by the ambulance service, and it is understood that no other vehicles were involved,” a spokesperson for the force said.

One witness told Gloucestershire Live that it looked like the plane had “stalled and nose-dived into the main road”.
