Man Dies After Being Hit By Falling Masonry.

Police are looking at whether windy weather is to blame after bricks fell from a building, striking a 61-year-old.

A 61-year-old man has died after he was hit by bricks falling from a building during stormy conditions.

The masonry came off a building in Cliff Street, in the seaside town of Bridlington, East Yorkshire, and struck the victim and a parked vehicle on Monday afternoon.
A police spokesman said the area would remain sealed off until checks on the building are completed.
The force said it was too early to say whether the stormy weather caused the bricks to collapse.
Sky News weather producer Rebecca Yussuf said rain in the area was accompanied by gale-force winds at around the time the tragedy happened at 1pm.
She said: "Mean wind speeds reached 34mph, with gusts of 48mph."
