An 85-year-old man has died with signs of drowning in a hotel pool in Tenerife after suffering a cardiorespiratory arrest, as reported by the Canary Islands Emergency Coordination Center, Cecoes-112.
The event took place around 3:00 p.m. this Wednesday, at which time 112 received the notice that the man had been taken from the pool of a hotel located on Rafael Puig Lluvina avenue, in the Tenerife municipality of Arona.
A medicalized ambulance and basic life support ambulance from the Canary Islands Emergency Service (SUC) traveled to the site, but until their arrival “lifeguards from the complex provided the first aid to the affected person and began to carry out resuscitation maneuvers.”
“The SUC personnel found that the affected person remained in cardiorespiratory arrest and continued to carry out advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation maneuvers, which finally did not give results and confirmed the death of the affected person,” they report from 112.
Agents of the National Police and the local Police also came to the place, who took charge of the corresponding proceedings.
