La victime a été évacuée, en vie, vers le centre hospitalier Lapeyronie à Montpellier.

This Thursday, August 8, in the middle of the afternoon, sea rescuers rescued a man who had begun to drown on the Petit Travers beach at the exit of Carnon, at number 300 of the avenue Grassion-Cibrand where the water tower stands.

The 70-year-old unfortunate man was taken ill while he was swimming. After getting him out of the water, the rescuers gave him a cardiac massage that lasted more than an hour, which had the merit of bringing him back to life.

And it was alive that he was evacuated by ambulance to the Lapeyronie hospital center. Since then, we have not known how his state of health has evolved.
