    Did anyone hear anything about this?

    Apparently a woman was hurt not too far from Donard on Sunday and air lifted by helicopter to hospital? I haven't been able to find anything about it online. Hope she's ok?

    This is from Rescue 116 posting on Facebook the other day

    At 15.24 this afternoor Rescue 116 was tasked by NMOC to the Wicklow mountain area to assist a young girl who had been thrown from a horse. Advanced Paramedics on scene requested helicopter assistance due to rough terrain and the inaccessibility of the area. Rescue 116 landed on, then brought the casualty, the Advanced Paramedic, and the casualty's mother to Tallaght Hospital.

    On landing in Tallaght hospital, Rescue 116 was retasked to the Dundalk area to search the bay area for a missing boatman. Rescue 116 left the scene without finding anything due to low fuel. Other agencies involved in the search included Clogherhead ALB, Greenore Coast Guard unit, Drogheda and Dundalk Coast Guard units and members of the public.

    ETA - sorry about the bold type, can't seem to cancel it
