Porsgrunns Dagblad – Three girls swam out of the reef – two failed to go ashore

The three girls probably swam from the sandy beaches along Revstien on the reef and, according to police at the scene of the accident, had to go out to the Green Sea signboard on the outside of the reef. The way is on the reef and there are strong currents in the sea outside of Revstien.

A 13 year old was rescued by water from a Seaking rescue helicopter and flown to the Rikshospitalet. The girl was the last of the three who came to the edge of the water.

It is unclear what is his state of health. The PHE has been in contact with the University Hospital of Oslo, but up to here they can not say anything about the condition of the 13-year-old child

Saved in a pleasure boat

One of the other two girls managed to swim to the reef safety on earth.

– Another was helped in a pleasure boat, said Deputy Police Chief Tom Richard Skuggedal.

A police officer who was first on the scene should also have jumped into the water and help save a 19 year old. He will have taken her to a civilian boat that helped save the 19-year-old.

– They went and bathed and went too far, says operations director Christian Gulli at the Police Operations Center in the Southeast Police District.

How many bathers are uncertain.

The 19-year-old man is sent to the Vestfold Hospital. She was aware when she was saved by the water. The 13-year-old child is receiving treatment at the Rikshospitalet tonight.

Taken of Power

The 13-year-old athlete was pulled out of the stream and led hundreds of meters from the green pole to which swimming would swim.

The current on the site can be strong and the current conditions in the Plateau are known to be capricious

Skuggedal is not familiar with girls' swimming techniques.
