FIREFIGHTERS rescued a ten-year-old boy who was stuck up a tree on Saturday afternoon.
A crew from Bishop Auckland, County Durham, put a ladder up the tree, next to the Vicarage, in Collingwood street, Coundon, and helped the boy climb down.
A fire brigade spokesman said: "He was a little bit embarrassed, but otherwise unharmed.
"He had managed to get up all right, but had not thought through how he was going to get down."
