80-year-old man dies following Marine Drive crash

An elderly man has died following a serious crash near Port Soderick last night.

A major emergency response took place at around 7pm on Monday following reports a vehicle came off the edge of the road in the area between the Marine Drive junction and Port Soderick.

Police have now confirmed the driver - an 80-year-old man from Douglas who was airlifted to Noble's Hospital following the incident - has now died as a result of serious injuries.

Officers say an investigation into the matter is ongoing and are asking people to avoid speculation and respect the privacy of the family at this time.
