Cape Town - Emergency services are attempting to bring a 16-year-old climber who has reportedly broken his leg on the Muizenberg mountains to safety.

The teenager and his family are being aided by around seven rescue workers, and a helicopter is standing by to assist.

Strong winds, which have been blowing across Cape Town for most of Monday, are adding to the difficulty of removing the injured climber from the mountain.
