THE POLICE helicopter searched for a 'vulnerable male' near Lavernock Point last night, September 8.

Penarth and Barry Coastguard, as well as Penarth Lifeboat Station crew, were all tasked to search the area at 7.30pm, but before the lifeboat could be deployed the man was found safe and well in Penarth.

All units were stood down and returned to station.
