Two fatal accidents - Corsica Island

[DandyDon]

Google translates the headline to include "Canary Islands" but that is a mistranslation for Canari at the north end of the island. The Lavezzi Islands are off of the south end in the strait between Corsica and Sardinia.

This Wednesday, September 9 (sic), in the late morning, CROSS Corse was alerted that a 55-year-old diver was the victim of a cardio-respiratory arrest in the Lavezzi Islands area.

The Puma helicopter from Sulinzara Air Base was then engaged, with a medical team on board.

After several attempts at resuscitation by the doctor aboard the Puma, the death was unfortunately confirmed at 1 p.m.

A little later, around noon, near the commune of Canari in Cap Corse, the CROSS was informed by a diver that his partner, a 67-year-old professional diver, had suffered a cardio-respiratory arrest, on his way back to the diving support.

Immediately, the starship of the SDIS 2B and that of the SNSM of San Fiurenziu went there. After several attempts at resuscitation, the SMUR doctor reported the death at 1:40 p.m.
