A man has died at the scene of a motorbike crash.

Emergency services were called just after 8.35pm on Monday (July 30) to the A151 Corby Glen Road, at Grimsthorpe.

A blue Suzuki motorbike was heading west towards Corby Glen before the crash, in which the 39-year-old rider died. His family have been informed and are being supported by police.
