An injured climber has been rescued from cliffs in Arbroath after suffering a broken leg. The alarm was raised shortly after 12.30pm yesterday when both of Arbroath RNLI lifeboats were alerted to reports of a person in danger.
Crews scrambled to the scene and conducted a frantic rescue operation in a bid to prevent the individual from further harm.
Dramatic footage taken at the site, which was shared on social media, shows volunteers conducting a high line transfer with the casualty to the Coastguard Rescue Helicopter during extremely windy weather.
