DCD were called to a person who had fallen into the River Liffey this Morning. ACDO Hanna donned his dry suit and entered the water while other DCD Volunteers assisted with throw lines. ACDO Hanna stabilized the casualty who had a serious head injury until the DFB arrived.
The DFB used the HiAb crane on D35 with a basket stretcher and DFB SRT attached to effect the rescue of the casualty and Aidan was brought back to the access steps by our rescue boat. All in all it was an excellent example of inter-agency cooperation.
