Police in Strabane are warning that someone’s life could be put at risk if people continue to damage life-saving water safety equipment.
Police have issued a stark warning that a throw line could be the difference between life and death.
It’s after a string of recent incidents in Strabane and Newtownstewart during which life-saving safety equipment was damaged.
Community Rescue Service District Commander, Ivan Barr, says this wanton and daily destruction of vital life-saving equipment defies logic. A few seconds of skulduggery, he says, could lead to a lifetime of misery.
He, along with Police, is appealing to anyone with information on the incidents to come forward.
