A British man is fighting for his life in Greece after sustaining serious injuries in a quad bike accident.

The 20-year-old was involved in a crash along with another tourist, aged 19.

The vehicle swerved off the road and into a field in the mountains of Agios Leon on Zante Island, according to local reports.

The man was rushed to Zakynthos Hospital and is now being treated in the Intensive Care Unit with brain injuries, while the 19-year-old only suffered a minor injury.

Neither of the men have been named.

The causes of the accident are unknown but they are being investigated.

Earlier this summer, another British teenager died on the same island after being crushed by a quad bike that overturned while he was on holiday.

A second 19-year-old British national was also in the vehicle, but sustained only minor injuries.
