Three Plucked from River Medina in Dramatic Rescue
Three people were hauled to safety from the River Medina tonight (Sunday) thanks to the quick action of the Cowes Harbour Master.
Coastguards and Ambulance Rush to Scene
Just before 8pm, Bembridge and Ventnor Coastguard Rescue Teams jumped into action at Folly Lane, East Cowes, after reports the trio had ended up in the water following an incident with their dinghy.
The Cowes Harbour Master was already rescuing them when emergency services arrived. The Isle of Wight Ambulance Service sent an ambulance and officer to check on the rescued individuals.
All Unharmed After Rough Ride
Thankfully, all three escaped without injury. They were given the all-clear at the scene and did not require further medical treatment.
