AN ELDERLY man has died after his car smashed through a brick wall, almost hitting a house.
The man, who was from the Clacton area, is thought to have fallen ill at the wheel along Clacton Road, between Weeley and Little Clacton, on Saturday at 10.10pm.
His Hyundai car clipped a roadside recovery truck before hitting the garden wall.
The 80-year-old was taken to Colchester General Hospital but died shortly afterwards.
