Apologies for the down time over the past couple of days. I've got to the bottom of the issue so hopefully everything should be back to normal.

That was at around 1pm,at Glenarm Marina.I don`t think it`s connected. Thanks anyway. Sadly the person did not survive. RIP

This is on high ground behind me, between Glenarm and Ballygally.

1910 A lot of spotlights have appeared at the top of the high ground in last 5 mins, possibly mountain rescue
   
Seems like someone may have fallen, the heli has returned to base.

Seems to be a search of an area around a farm on very difficult terrain and horrible weather conditions.

NI Emergency Response Vids made a further post saying someone had fallen from a cliff.

Absolutely terrible day in Glenarm.

I have found out what happened, but it would not be fair to post details up here.
Doubtless it will be on the news at some point.
