Lorry falls into water at Bristol harbour
The Guardian says a lorry has fallen into the harbour in Bristol city centre.
Emergency services were called to the scene early on Thursday after the HGV ended up partially submerged in the water, with the cab perched on the dock.
David Hill, who lives nearby and walked to the scene after hearing sirens, said he had not “seen anything like it before”.
Referencing the moment a statue of the slave trader Edward Colston was toppled into the port during a Black Lives Matter protest in 2020, Hill, 37, told the PA news agency: “I’ve seen people go into the harbour, even a statue, but never a lorry.
