A TEENAGER has been rescued from a tree over a large pond.

The boy was stuck on top of a fallen tree over a deep pond in Moreton.

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service were called to a location off Warmwell Road, Moreton, at 2.45pm on Sunday, April 21, to help the teenage boy who had become stuck.

A spokesperson for DWFRS said: “It’s been a busy afternoon as one fire engine was sent to Moreton to rescue a teenager who was stuck on a tree over a large pond.”
