A hypothermic man who became separated from his friends whilst on a trip to rural Northumberland was brought to safety thanks to persevering officers.
Just after 8am on May 4, Northumbria Police received a report that a 53-year-old man had knocked on the door of a remote property in Harbottle, appearing dazed and confused.
The kind-hearted occupants of the address suspected the man had been wandering around lost in the surrounding terrain of Barrowburn and Whiteburn Hills all night, and they invited him inside whilst assistance was sought.
