A yellow and blue helicopter likely to be an Air Ambulance was seen around the Eastway area of Sale at around 11.45am this morning, it circled the area before landing on a field.

Residents took to twitter with one claiming it had landed near a field at Tyntesfield School although we cannot confirm this.

We now have information suggesting the helicopter landed at the school for a pupil who apparently had fainted and took ill, we are told that the pupil did not need the helicopter and went to hospital in an ambulance.

The helicopter was heard again shortly after midday and could be seen rushing towards the west.
