The callout followed a phone call to the police where a woman claimed she had been indecently assaulted in a park, but did not know her exact location. This is now believed to have been a hoax and a woman has been arrested according to the media.
Whether it was a hoax or not, the police and lowland search teams had to take it seriously and their professional conduct dealing with the incident, and searching in such conditions is a credit to them all.
