By Cillian Sherlock, PA
Rescuers are searching for a missing fisherman in waters off Co Sligo.
A member of the public alerted search teams about the missing man on Thursday evening.
Malin Head Coast Guard is co-ordinating the search off Mullaghmore.
It is believed the fisherman fell overboard from a vessel, with the search concentrating in the area off Mullaghmore and into Donegal Bay.
The Sligo-based Coast Guard helicopter R118, Killybegs Coast Guard Unit, and RNLI lifeboats from Bundoran, Aranmore, Ballyglass and Sligo, are involved in the search.
A number of local fishing vessels have also supported the search.
