Woman and mobility scooter rescued after getting stuck in mud on beach

Coastguard crews were called to help a woman whose mobility scooter became stuck in mud on a Denbighshire beach.

A companion raised the alarm during the incident which happened as they were exercising their dogs at Barkby Beach on Tuesday at about 12:15pm.



The coastguard said the woman had managed to get to safety before their crews arrived.

Teams from Rhyl and Flint then freed the scooter from near a slipway as the tide was going out. The woman was uninjured.
