A US Air Force base was placed on lockdown after an unauthorised man drove through the checkpoint and was shot at as he sped towards a military plane, police said.

The 44-year-old British man failed to follow security directions at the entrance to RAF Mildenhall, near Bury St Edmunds, at 1.40pm on Monday, Superintendent Kim Warner, of Suffolk Police said.
