A man in his 40s has sadly died after being pulled from the sea at Gyllyngvase Beach yesterday evening (14th).

Emergency services surrounded Gylly Beach in Falmouth at around 6:50pm with a police cordon placed on the beach.

In an update by Devon and Cornwall Police this afternoon, a man in his 40s was confirmed deceased at the scene, with the next of kin informed.
