A major search is under way for a swimmer who went into the Thames to cool down during the hottest day of the year. The man got into difficulty near Barge Walk, Kingston at roughly 6.40pm on Sunday.
Police often warn Londoners not to swim in the Thames during heatwaves. Although the river might seem like a natural place to cool off, the water is still very cold and dangerous.
