Tragedy in flood waters – near Glaisdale

THURSDAY 28TH DECEMBER 2023

The Team was contacted by North Yorkshire Police during the afternoon to assist with a report of a car in flood waters on the River Esk near Glaisdale. Other emergency services attended including the Yorkshire Ambulance Service, North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service and a Coastguard Helicopter.

After liaising with the other services, Cleveland MRT members were deployed to search the river banks but were later stood-down when NRFRS found three bodies in the vehicle. Fifteen of our members were deployed for just under 4-hours.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the deceased. North Yorkshire Police released this statement.
