Retained firefighters have helped 2 people lost in the dark and locked in at East Cowes cemetery tonight (Wednesday).
Firefighters from the town were mobilised to Kingston Road at 21:34 following reports that 2 drunk individuals were lost and appeared to be locked inside the walls of the cemetery.
It didn’t take long for the crew to locate the 2 inebriated individuals, who are said to have been cold and wet.
The duo were assisted back to the road and placed into a taxi that had been arranged for them.




























































































This Island is full of morons
Several people have remarked how dim the street lights are!
Lots more people have remarked how dim this couple are being in a cemetery that time of night!
Is this some kind of joke story!!
Hahahaha how the hell did they get lost!!!!
Unbelievable some people wasting the hard working service time getting lost in a cemetery???
Druggies? Hardly going to be an elderly couple laying flowers on a loved ones grave.
OMG! What next????
Oh dear! Lost in a cemetery at 21:00 hours.
Who goes to a cemetery in the dark? And if you do, you would take a torch. Something very odd and incomplete about this report.
We’re they re enacting Blair witch..? Its no more than 100 meters by 100meters with a 3ft wall… How can anyone get lost in there unless blindfolded with a bag on their head
Is this actually real? Next up, local residents get confused and lost within a garden, they were rescued by 2 firemen and a chip butty, before being tuckedd into bed. What the hell. Who paid for the taxi, why was this needed, how do you get lost in a graveyard?
you miserable old feckers, so what they had a bit to drink and got lost… better then having a fight and thieving is it not? i agree a small waste of emergency services time but no one got hurt and two people had a fun night 🙂
YOU pay the bill then. Suddenly NOT ‘your’ responsibility, well neither is it OURS.
agreed
