Emergency services were launched into action after a van was swept down a river this weekend.

The driver was trapped inside the van before it stopped against a bridge.

Crews secured the vehicle using specialist equipment and the person was carried out of it using a stretcher - they were passed to paramedics and taken to hospital.

The rescue operation was complete within an hour and a half.
