Bike champ killed in helicopter crash


British Superbike champion Steve Hislop has died in a helicopter crash in the Scottish Borders.
The civilian aircraft came down at a remote farm near Teviothead, off the A7 close to Hawick.

Lothian and Borders Police were alerted to the accident at 1650 BST, but a spokesman said it may have happened earlier in the day.

It is understood the helicopter may have been from the south of England.

Firefighters and other rescuers have had to use a four wheel drive vehicle to get from the A7 road to the scene.

The helicopter is believed to have been flying north when it got into difficulties and came down on moorland.

Wreckage is reported to be scattered over a wide area.

Pat Douglas, 47, said her husband Walter, 51, had come across the crash scene while tending livestock.

"We didn't see or hear anything really. We heard a helicopter buzzing around earlier today but we were not aware that anything was untoward until later," said Mrs Douglas.

She said Caerlanrig farm was the nearest inhabited building to the scene of the accident.

"We are about half a mile from where the crash happened."

Accident investigation

Farm worker John Hepburn, 18, from Teviothead, who saw the crash scene said: "The main body of the helicopter was on top of a bank and the tail was below, next to a burn.

"You would hardly know it was a helicopter unless you knew what had happened."

A Department of Transport spokesman said an air accident investigation team was on its way to the site to conduct a full inquiry.

The team were expected to arrive at the crash site at first light on Thursday.
