A PENSIONER has been rescued after he became stuck on a roof.
Firefighters were called to a house in Crossfield Road, Clacton at about 1.15pm this afternoon.
When crews from Clacton and Colchester arrived they found the man, who was in his 70's, had accessed the roof with a ladder but then became unsteady and was unable to get back down.
An aerial ladder platform was used to bring the man safely back to the ground.
