A TWO-ton piece of stone has fallen off a lorry and landed on a parked vehicle on Portland, police said.

Officers were called to the incident near Park Road in Easton Square shortly after 8am today.

A Dorset Police spokesman said the rock fell off the back of the vehicle as it went around a corner.

The piece of stone fell onto a blue Mitsubishi estate, registered to a Portland man, causing lots of damage.

The spokesman said no-one was hurt and that traffic is still moving freely in the area despite the obstruction.
