Fifty-two-year-old Justin Lowman, of Steynton, sadly passed away following an accident on Thursday, February 12.

Dyfed-Powys Police said officers were contacted by the ambulance service at 4.25pm over concerns for the welfare of three people on the Pembrokeshire coast.

Emergency services, including helicopters and lifeboats, and rescue teams from Fishguard, St Govan's and Tenby responded swiftly to the scene of the tragic incident which sadly resulted in the death of Justin, and injuries to two others during the major sea rescue operation.
