CALLOUT: Pont Melin-Fach 22/06/19

CALLOUT NEWS:
Last night we faced one of the most intense rescues we’ve had in a long time! At 2030 Heddlu Dyfed Powys Police requested assistance to the Pont Melin-Fach area to rescue a fallen male, as well as a female who had tried to reach him. After a considerable search to locate the pair a technical rescue was used to extract them from above. And we are so thankful to Brecon Mountain Rescue Team & Central Beacons Mountain Rescue for their support in what became very technical multi team rescue.

Both casualties were extracted safely by the teams and were later able to walk off the hill, escaping with only minor injuries. Our teams then stood down and headed for home around 02:00AM! Mountain Rescue England and Wales grough #WesternBeaconsMRT #Wales ITV Wales #Emergency#Charity #Volunteers
