A family of a boy who almost drowned in a sand sinkhole at Ayr beach has blasted the council's emergency response — after numerous calls failed.
Two-year-old JJ Forbes fell face first into a sinkhole last month after running into what appeared to be a puddle on a family day out with his parents Jay Forbes, 26, and Hayley, 27 Forbes and 10-month-old sister.
His dad Jay jumped in to rescue his son but then became stuck in the dangerous sinkhole before a passing dog walker helped save him.
