Reports claim Islander has died while skiing

The articles say that the 59-year-old was skiing with a friend in an off-piste section in the Solaise area of Val D’Isere when he crashed at high speed on Thursday.

He was treated on the mountain but died of a heart attack while being airlifted to hospital, it is claimed.

The local ski magazine The Edge, however, says that the man is from the Isle of Man.

The States police say they have not been contacted by the French authorities. Meanwhile, the Foreign Office is looking into the reports.
