Fifteen people have been assisted in two separate rescues on Lough Derg.
Just after 4 o’clock last evening, an emergency call was made to the Irish Coast Guard from a vessel which had struck Killaloe Bridge.
There were six people on board, all of whom were transferred safely to shore by the Killaloe Coast Guard, while it was decided to leave the boat itself in situ until today.
