A 15-YEAR-OLD boy was taken to hospital after a crash on the B4235 near Usk in Monmouthshire.

The boy, 15. was cycling on the B4235 going towards Usk at around 3.30pm on Friday, May 31, when he was involved in a crash involving a car.

A spokesperson for Gwent Police said: "Officers attended, along with personnel from the Welsh Ambulance Service and Welsh Air Ambulance, and the collision involved a push bike and a car."
