West Pomeranian: male drowned in the sea in Mielno

Water rescuers and firefighters sought on Sunday in the sea about 40-year-old men who entered the water in Mielno and did not appear back on shore. According to the president of the WOPR of the West Pomeranian Province Apoloniusz Kurylczyk, a chain of life was also created.

There are very difficult conditions in the Baltic Sea on Sunday – strong winds wind, is high wave. Paramedics put red flags up on the baths. They also appeal not to enter water on unguarded beaches.

On Sunday, a 50-year-old man drowned on an unguarded stretch of beach in Lazy. Despite his 45-minute CPR, he couldn't be saved. His 25-year-old son survived, and he and his father entered the water.

West Pomeranian rescuers extracted a few people from the water on Sunday, who entered the sea despite very bad conditions – it was, among others, a man under the influence of alcohol, who sailed at an unguarded beach in Międzyzdroje and was unable to return to shore alone.
