Busy weekend for fire service

It was a busy weekend for the Fire and Rescue service after they tackled a number of incidents around the Island.

Crews from Castletown and Port Erin were called to help a person tapped under a car, they used lifting equipment to free them and they were later transferred to an ambulance for treatment.

Douglas teams then freed a child trapped in a park bench and another casualty from a car crash. 

Meanwhile, Douglas firefighters were called to tackle a wheelie bin and fence on fire in Onchan - an e-cigarette had been thrown into the bin, overheating and then catching alight.
