A man has died after collapsing at a demonstration in London's financial district ahead of the Group of 20 economic crisis summit in the British capital, the London Ambulance Service said.

The man fell over yesterday and became unconscious, prompting a member of the public to call emergency services, an ambulance spokeswoman said. He was still breathing at the time but died despite attempts to resuscitate him.

It was not immediately clear how the man died, although some people had earlier been injured when protesters held in a police cordon near the Bank of England surged against the crash barriers.

''We received a 999 (emergency) call at 7:24pm (0524 AEDT Thursday) from a member of the public reporting that a man had fallen over and was unconscious, but was breathing,'' said the London Ambulance Service.

''At 7:30pm we were informed by the police that a man at the location had stopped breathing.''

He was moved to a quieter area where a police officer started to carry out CPR before ambulance staff arrived to treat him. They ''made extensive efforts to resuscitate him both there and on the way to hospital'', she said.
