Police have saved a man's life by rescuing him from a car partially submerged in Lough Neagh.
The driver was found in the rough waters in Antrim suffering the effects of hypthermia when four officers pulled him from the vehicle.
He's now being treated in hospital.
Inspector Claire Gilbert said: "I commend the brave actions of these officers in ensuring the safety of the member of public. The swift action of the Police officers involved who, in treacherous conditions placed themselves at personal risk, were key to saving this man’s life. This is an excellent example of the commitment of officers in keeping people safe which resulted in a young man's life being saved last night."
