A hang glider was rescued after an accident in Famara yesterday afternoon.

At approximately 2:30pm, emergency services were alerted to a situation that had occurred in Famara.

Upon arrival, firefighters would find a hang glider in the middle of the hillside who would tell them that they had injured their back and had trouble breathing.

They fitted the hang glider with a neck brace and transferred them to the Dr. Jose Molina Orosa Hospital in Arrecife.
