River Rescue



Locals pull out Langport supermarket worker...

This was the scene on the banks of the River Parrett on Thursday as several residents living in the Coombe area dashed to the nearby waterway to rescue a local swimmer.

Andrew Smith, a manager at Langport Tesco and who's asked not to be named, told reporters he was enjoying his regular morning swim to Aller and back from Bow Bridge when he was struck by a small pleasure boat with an outboard motor.

"I don't think Deborah Meaden saw me" said Mr Smith, "she just carried on talking to the BBC news team about 'disabled fishing bays' at Cocklemoor and completely ignored me"

River Police say they're investigating the incident.
