A cricket umpire has died after being hit on the head by the ball during a match.
Alcwyn Jenkins, 72, was umpiring a league match between Swansea and Llangennech at the St Helen's ground in Swansea on Saturday.

The spokesperson for Morriston Hospital in Swansea is reported to have said that the injuries were consistent with being hit on the head with a cricket ball.
Glad to know that they know this, but still, tragic, because it could have been prevented.
And this, this should not have happened:
A 54-year-old carpenter in Wantage, England, accidentally cut off his own penis while working with a saw, his mother says.
Stuart Keen's mother, Edna, told The Sunday Telegraph her son had been cutting wood for a cabinet when the saw inflicted the horrific injury. Surgeons were able to reattach the severed appendage, she said.
