A man in his 60s has died following this afternoon’s rescue off the coast of Inishowen.

The man was the third person to be found after a boat capsized half a mile off Malin Head Pier just after midday.

The man was not recovered until just before 6pm following a multi-agency search.

It is understood the man was recovered along the shoreline.

He was rushed to Letterkenny University Hospital but has since passed away.

The man’s identity has not been revealed until all of his relatives have been informed.
