Peel Coastguards tackle pollution incident

Peel Coastguard was called out on Wednesday night to aid with a pollution incident in the town's harbour.

After reports of a 'large pollution spill' crews found it reached from the swing bridge right down the harbour, past the Museum to the boat park. 

Volunteers saw a large amount of an orange pollution and oil sheen in the sea.

A boom was then placed around a vessel which was suspected to have caused the pollution, a sample of the spill was taken away for testing.
