Man (25) drowned in lake Rotterdam, boy (7) resuscitated | Inland

Earlier in the day, a 7-year-old boy also got into trouble in the same pool. He too swam outside the buoy line, where it is a lot deeper, and stayed underwater for about fifteen minutes. The child was resuscitated on the side and taken to hospital. According to a spokesperson for the security region, it is unknown how he is doing.

The spokesman speaks of a “violent incident”, because both events followed each other in short order. According to local media, the dramas took place within four hours.

The safety region warns people who come to the Zevenhuizerplas to look for coolness to stay within the buoys. “Anyone can just stand there.”
