Callout #153;Tuesday 22 September at 12.35. Throughout this afternoon and into this evening we’ve been working closely at Dare Valley Country Park, Aberdare, with South Wales Police (SWP) and #NationalPoliceAirService (NPAS) with the search for Malcolm Kitts, who was missing from his home nearby. As darkness was falling and with search areas being steadily covered, we were all elated when Malcolm was found on the mountain. Terrific joint working immediately followed between us, SWP Tactical Support Team, Search and Rescue Dog Association South Wales, Western Beacons Mountain Rescue Team and Maritime and Coastguard Agency Rescue Helicopter #StAthan with getting Malcolm off the mountain to hospital. A great outcome and our thanks to everyone who played a part in the search. Our additional gratitude to the staff at #CaffiCwtsh in Dare Valley CP for staying open late and offering to stay all night to help us with refreshments, very much appreciated.
