LONDON: Richard Hammond, a presenter for the BBC's Top Gear automobile television series, was airlifted to hospital on Wednesday in critical condition after being involved in an accident, the BBC said.

The 36-year-old television presenter was filming for the programme at a disused airfield in York, central England, when the accident happened.

A BBC spokeswoman provided few details saying only: "The incident happened quite recently and the focus of our attention is on Richard at this stage."

Inspector Mike Thompson of the local police force said that police had received a report at about 5:45 pm of a "male person trapped in what was described as an overturned jet car which had been driven on the airfield."

The police officer said the occupant had received "serious injuries".

Hammond was airlifted to a hospital in nearby Leeds.
