Coastguards carried out a rescue earlier today after a mountain biker fell down a cliff in the south of the Island.
Teams attended the scene at 3.15pm today after a young male had gone over the cliff face at Bradda.
Three technicians and a paramedic were able to reach the casualty and begin treating injuries before the individual was recovered up the cliff to the waiting rescue helicopter which then transferred the male to Noble’s Hospital.
Coastguards add this was an ‘extremely challenging’ rescue and are wishing the casualty a speedy recovery.
