Woman in mobility scooter mud rescue at Prestatyn

The coastguard said the woman managed to get to safety before they arrived to pull her vehicle from the mud

Coastguard crews were called to help a woman whose mobility scooter became stuck in mud near a Denbighshire beach.

A companion raised the alarm during the incident which happened as they were exercising their dogs at Barkby Beach on Tuesday at about 12:15 BST.

The coastguard said the woman had managed to get to safety before their crews arrived.

Teams from Rhyl and Flint then freed the scooter from near a slipway as the tide was going out.

The woman was uninjured.
