Footage shows rescue as ship sinks off the Isle of Lewis

Footage shows the crew of a boat being rescued just moments before it sinks off the coast of the Isle of Lewis. Five crewmen were picked up by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency after the Iuda Naofa fishing boat began taking on water about 48 miles (77km) off the Butt of Lewis. Two crewmen were airlifted to another boat and three to hospital to be treated for hypothermia.
