Sadly, police can advise a 19-year-old man has died after falling from height at Cape Deslacs near Clifton Beach today.

Police and emergency services were called to the scene about 3:20pm following reports the man had fallen from a nearby cliff while bushwalking.

The Tasmania Police Westpac Rescue Helicopter arrived a short time later, and the man was winched from the scene.

Sadly he died while receiving medical treatment, before being transported to hospital.

Police do not believe there are any suspicious circumstances. Our thoughts are with the man’s family and loved ones. A report will be prepared for the coroner.
