CALL OUT

Long Rock – 14-15/12/24

At 18.30 on Saturday 14th December, we were requested by Devon & Cornwall Police to assist with the search for a missing person in the Long Rock area.

Team members searched areas alongside Maritime and Coastguard Agency and Police colleagues. We were stood down in the night to continue with the search the following day.

On Sunday we were re-tasked to continue with the search. We worked again with several Coastguard teams, as well as a Mountain Rescue Search Dogs England team, Police Drones and personnel from Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service.

During the search our team members located a body.

Our thoughts go out to the missing person’s family and friends, as well as everyone involved in the search.
