All adrift in Huelva as Guardia Civil save family of four from the sea

TWO adults and two children have been rescued from a boat and inflatable from the estuary of Punta Umbria in Huelva by the Guardia Civil.

A report was received that someone had fallen into the water from a boat and a Guardia Civil vessel as well as boat from the port responded, discovering that a woman had fallen into the water leaving a young child in the boat whilst a man and another child were also adrift on an inflatable.

At the woman’s request, the officers went to give help to the six-year-old who was alone on the boat whilst the port boat rescued the woman who was holding on to a buoy.

The man and the other child were rescued from the inflatable and the entire family were reunited in the port with no serious injuries and saw the safe return of their boat.
