Young person rescued at Port Jack cliffs

Yesterday proved a busy day for Douglas Coastguard.

Having already assisted paramedics at lunchtime, they were then called to help a young person stuck at Port Jack cliffs later that afternoon. 

The youngster was clinging to the cliff face and Police had managed to throw a line down by the time the coastguard arrived.

Crews were able to secure the youth to a rope and both were hauled back up to safety.

Despite being 'shaken', no-one was hurt during the incident.
