Douglas Coastguards and Emergency Services pair up for two call outs

Mon, 27 Jan 2020

Douglas Coastguards were called out twice yesterday, one incident involving a youth.

 

At 12:45 pm teams attended to a casualty who was brought into hospital.

 

They then received a call just after 5 pm to reports of a young person clinging to the newly coated cliff face at Port Jack, Onchan.

 

Police were already on the scene, who had thrown down a line for the youth to grab onto.

 

The youth was brought safely back to the top by a Coastguard technician, checked over for injuries and then passed to their parents.
