Crew members from the Staithes and Runswick RNLI had to rescue a man after he was cut off by the incoming tide near Staithes yesterday.

The alarm was raised when the companion of the stranded man waded back to Staithes from a spot called Short Sand half a mile north of Staithes.

As the lifeboat located the casualty, two members of the RNLI volunteer crew swam ashore with a rope from the lifeboat.

The man was successfully helped from the rocks back to the boat and transferred back to the Staithes RNLI boathouse.

The two men, both from North Yorkshire, had set off with the intention of exploring a disused tunnel which opens onto the shore and was once part of the old Boulby alum works. 

They were wet and cold from their ordeal but unharmed.

 

Neighbourhood police officers in Redcar had to take action after a man and a woman became abusive in a local fast food outlet.

Officers on foot patrol on Redcar High Street spoke to the man and woman after an incident in KFC.

Both were heavily under the influence of alcohol and were being verbally abusive.

They were quickly dealt with and moved on from the area.
