A teenage boy has died after falling into the sea at Blackpool.
The emergency services were alerted by a call from a friend, who said the boy had fallen from the sea wall and into the water near Gynn Square at about 16:20 BST.
Two lifeboats were launched and the crew pulled the teenager out of the water, but were unable to revive him.
The boy's name will not been released until relatives have been informed of his death.
Sadly, accidents DO happen at any time, in any place, but the sea can be unpredictable place, and the unwary or careless are often caught out ..... :sad:
