An 11-year-old British boy has died after crashing into a tree during a family skiing trip to the US.
Benjamin Trichler, from Uffington in Oxfordshire, was seen skiing too fast before hitting the tree as he went down a blue, intermediate run at the Breckenridge Resort in Colorado.
A statement released by the coroner's office in Colorado said his death was accidental and caused by a "closed head injury".
