Police Thank CRS
Police thank Community Search and Rescue who assisted with early morning call
Police have thanked the Community Search and Rescue team for assisting them during an early morning call.
A spokesperson for the PSNI said ‘A huge Shout out & Thank You!” to Community Search and Rescue who assisted us with a call early this morning!
Police received multiple calls regarding a concern for two peoples safety near the edge of the River Bann. On arrival Police located the persons in question, one of which was standing on the edge of a wall looking into the Bann, and the other standing just beside.
Police opened up a dialogue with these persons for nearly an hour trying to talk them into safety whilst Community Search and Rescue got a boat into the Bann should one or both persons fall in.
Thankfully Police where able to talk and reason with both persons getting them into a place of safety and into a nice warm Police car!
We mmay wear uniforms but we’re all human! Sometimes a simple chat can be far more powerful than any other resource we have…’
