Schoolboy dies after getting into difficulties in river

Lancashire Police were called to the incident in a section of the river close to Garstang Cricket Club shortly after 2.30pm on Saturday.

A spokesman said: "Our officers quickly attended and found that a teenage boy was being given CPR by members of the public on the riverbank.

"He was airlifted to hospital in a critical condition but despite the best efforts of medical personnel, he very sadly died the following day. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones at this incredibly distressing time."
