People have been urged to take greater care during the warm weather after a person in Inishowen was hospitalised with suspected sun stroke.
Buncrana Roads Policing Unit attended Buncrana Pier yesterday after receiving a report of a person who appeared to be in need of medical attention.
An ambulance was contacted as the person concerned was displaying signs of suspected heat stroke.
“Please be careful while temperatures remain high. Wear sun cream and seek shelter during peak sunshine hours. Stay hydrated by drinking water,” a spokesperson for Buncrana Garda Station said.
