Coastguard teams helped a man who had suffered a leg injury after falling a small distance from the sea wall in Southwold.

Eight officers from the Lowestoft and Southwold teams were called out shortly after 10.30pm last night (Friday), to the north side of the Southwold Pier.

The man, believed to be in his twenties, was taken to hospital by an East of England Ambulance Service paramedic. His injuries are not thought to be serious.
