Crew on an Irish Sea ferry saved a woman's life by safely rescuing her from the water after a passenger spotted her.
Staff on the Stena Embla, which runs between Liverpool and Belfast daily, were about to set sail when a passenger spotted the woman in the water in the River Mersey at around 9.40pm on Wednesday, September 21, the Liverpool Echo reports.
A Stena Line spokesperson said: "A life ring was thrown and the Fast Response Craft was launched to collect the woman. She was brought onboard suffering from severe hypothermia and was given first aid. The crew have indicated that the female entered the water in Liverpool, but it is not known how or why.
