Man saves baby whose pushchair was blown into icy sea

A six-month-old baby boy has been rescued after a gust of wind blew his pushchair into the water.

George Reeder, who is dock master in Watchet, in Somerset, dived into the icy water after seeing the buggy upside down and a woman screaming for help.

He told BBC Radio 5 live Breakfast how he instinctively rescued the baby, who was later airlifted to hospital for treatment.
