A mum has issued a warning to visitors to Lincolnshire's beaches after her 12-year-old son was left in excruciating pain when he was stung in the foot by a weever fish.

Gemma Vicary was visiting Chapel St Leonards with her family, including her son Jadyn, on Friday, August 21 but an innocuous trip to the beach soon turned into a nightmare for the whole family.

Jadyn was playing in the sea when he was stung on the foot after unknowingly standing on the poisonous fish, which are known for burying themselves under the sand.
