Douglas lifeboat launched to help stranded trio

Douglas lifeboat was called out over the weekend to help three young people who had become stranded.

Volunteer crews were paged just before 3pm yesterday after the group got stuck on cliffs near Marine Drive.

The crew decided it was safer to lower two into the lifeboat at the bottom, whilst the third was recovered at the top by the coastguard.

In an operation that took around an hour, none of those involved in the incident were injured.
