A fisherman has been rescued off the County Donegal coast this afternoon by Lough Swilly RNLI.
The lifeboat was called out just after 1pm by Malin Head Coast Guard Radio to assist the ill fisherman 20 nautical miles off Malin Head.
The fisherman was successfully winched onboard Rescue Helicopter 118 and taken to Letterkenny Hospital. The Lough Swilly volunteer crew were stood down and returned to Buncana to refuel and make ready for service.
