The Bridlington Coastguard Rescue Team were called to cordon off a busy Bridlington beach this afternoon (2nd August).
A member of the public was reported to have suffered a medical episode on Bridlington South Beach and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance was called to attend the incident.
Coastguards from the Bridlington team were tasked at 1.20pm to cordon off an area of the popular beach and create a safe landing area for the Air Ambulance.
With it being peak holiday season, hundreds of visitors were on the beach at the time and many were asked to move from the immediate area due to the risk of blowing sand from the helicopter rotor blades.
