The Santas Circus company had been performing on the field and were packing up when the helicopters landed.

But A SECAmb spokesman confirmed the incident related to a private address nearby and was not linked to the circus.

The air ambulance spokesman said she believed the second helicopter may have only flown in to relieve the first crew.

It is not yet known how serious the person's injuries are.
