    'Britons' die in Peru air crash

    </span>
    Four British tourists have been killed in a plane crash near one of Peru's top tourist sites, police have said.

    The Cessna aircraft crashed in a field in an area around the Nazca Lines on Saturday after engine trouble.

    Police said the British passengers - three men and one woman - and the Peruvian pilot and co-pilot all died.

    The Nazca Lines, which are about 240 miles (385km) south-east of Lima, are one of Peru's leading attractions and only fully visible from the air.
