A man has been found dead after a tree fell onto a caravan as weather warnings remain in place after Storm Goretti hit the UK.

Devon and Cornwall Police said emergency services were called at around 7.35pm on Thursday to the Mawgan area of Helston where work took place on Friday to remove the tree.

His death is not being treated as suspicious, and his next of kin have been informed, police said.

The storm brought winds of almost 100mph after forecasters issued a rare red warning for “dangerous, stormy” winds in the South West.”

About 27,000 properties were without power in the South West at 9am on Saturday, according to the National Grid’s website, along with close to 2,300 in the West Midlands and about 300 in the East Midlands, while all power has been restored in Wales.
