Two teenagers in an inflatable dinghy have been rescued twice in one week off the South East Cornwall coast – the second time when they were 'larking around'.

On Tuesday evening this week, rescue teams received a report of people in trouble in an inflatable boat off Looe beach.

Two 19-year-olds from Plymouth, who had been rescued a week before when their dinghy was spotted drifting out to sea, were brought back to the beach in an operation involving Looe Lifeboat and Coastguard personnel.
