The teenager was under water for about 20 to 30 minutes, rescuers said.

The Conservative candidate for the police and crime commissioner post in Cumbria has been re-elected.

Peter McCall was announced as the winner a short time ago at the count in Workington.

He took 56,753 of the first preference votes, while Labour's Barbara Canon took 27,687 votes and Loraine Birchell 21,506 for the Liberal Democrats.

Cumbria's public health director, Colin Cox, said a further relaxation of lockdown rules is "the right thing to be doing".

Indoor hospitality and household mixing are set to return from next Monday, as the PM is due to confirm the next stage of lockdown easing in England.

Mr Cox (pictured) said transmission levels were very low in the county, with latest figures showing a rate of five per 100,000 a week.

He said: "We saw a couple of days in the last week where parts of Cumbria, Allerdale in particular, was the lowest in the country."

In Cumbria more than 303,000 people have had their first vaccination and more than half of those have had both doses.

Mr Cox said: "What we've seen so far is that the first couple of stages of easing the lockdown so far didn't seem to make a difference to the rate of transmission in Cumbria so I'm still quite positive that given the rates being as low as they are the vaccination programme being as good as it has been, that will keep a lid on transmission."

Votes are being counted to decide who will be Cumbria's next police and crime commissioner (PCC).

The candidates standing are Loraine Birchall for Liberal Democrats, Labour's Barbara Cannon and the current PCC, Conservative candidate Peter McCall.

It's taking longer than usual to count the ballot slips from Thursday's elections because of the pandemic.

In Barrow, Labour has taken Hindpool and the Conservatives have won Roosecote.

None of these results will affect which party controls the councils.

The result of the police and crime commissioner vote will be announced on Monday.

Results are still being counted for other council elections, as well as for two mayors and four police and crime commissioners, and it may not be until Monday before they are all announced.

Ones due today are the Cleveland and Northumbria PCCs, and the Tees Valley Mayor.

North Tyneside Council could be today or Saturday.

On Saturday there will be the Durham PCC, North Tyneside Mayor, and Durham County Council along with Hartlepool Council.

All eyes are likely to be on the latter in the light of the Tories winning the parliamentary seat.

The council's 36 seats are up for grabs, and currently with no overall control, it is led by a coalition involving Conservatives, all manner of independents and other groups.

Cumbria PCC results are then due to be announced on Monday.

Club president Mike Sweeney said: "In places it's beyond knee deep, a heavy powder to start with and it got a bit slushy during the day and then it clouded over and the temperatures dropped and it got firmer again."

There's been more snow today, and more skiers are expected.

Mr Sweeney added: "It's about an hour's climb to the tow from our car park and if you're carrying skis and boots, and the snow's deep, it's more than that, but we're not complaining as we've got the only lift in western Europe as far as I'm aware."
