A body has been recovered in the search for a missing fisherman off the northwest coast.
The body was recovered by a tug boat in the search off Teileann in Co Donegal just before 6pm this evening.
On Thursday evening, a member of the public alerted the Malin Head coordination centre after they found a boat that had run aground, about 4km south of Mullaghmore Head in Co Sligo.
It is believed that the fisherman fell overboard from the vessel as the engine was still running when the vessel was discovered on the Sligo coastline.
The Coast Guard said that the search concluded today following three days of intensive searching coordinated by the Coast Guard at Malin Head Maritime Rescue Sub Centre.
It thanked all of the search units and local fishing vessels along with An Garda Síochána and the local community for their support.
