THREE men were rescued by fire crews using a phone app after becoming lost on Shipley Glen.
The trio were going out for a walk in the Glen when they became lost at the popular walking spot in the Bradford district.
They used the ‘What3words’ phone app which gives every 3x3 square metre of the globe a unique three-word code.
Fire crews from Bingley and Shipley managed to track down the men who suffered no injuries in the incident at around 5.30pm yesterday.
