Probe after teen lads found dead under cliffs at seaside

- BY KAREN ROCKETT

INQUIRIES were continuing last night into the deaths of two teenage boys found at the bottom of a cliff.

The 17-year-olds, who have not been named, were discovered below a sheer drop near a small seaside town.

The alarm was raised in Saltburn, North Yorks, at 7pm on Friday night and police and Coastguard­s rushed to the scene but could not help the boys. The discovery came only hours after a lifeboat rescued a woman from rough seas near the town’s pier. Two members of the RNLI crew bravely jumped into the water to grab hold of the 58-year-old and bring her to safety on the shore.

The teenagers were found at Huntcliff, which rises to 365ft beside the same beach.

Anyone with informatio­n should call Cleveland Police on nonemergen­cy 101.
