Don’t rock boat on Lough Erne

IT’S not just the roads that you have to be careful on in the county.
A man in his 30s has received a Community Resolution Notice for disorderly behaviour while on a boat on Lough Erne.

The boat operator was spoken to by the warden and police shouted warnings from the police jetty to the boat owner to desist this behaviour but it continued with some fishermen on the shore being swamped by the wake water.
