RACINE, Wis. — Two drowning victims were pulled from the water at North Beach in Racine and transported by authorities to a hospital for treatment.
The first victim, a male, was unconscious and CPR was performed until the Racine Fire Department arrived. The second victim, a female, was conscious and breathing but was also taken to the hospital for treatment.
According to the RFD, swimming in designated areas is an important part of beach safety. The bottom of Lake Michigan is uneven and there are many areas with drop-offs, holes and other dangerous landscapes.
The Racine Police Department, Racine County Sheriff's Office and the Racine County Dive Team also assisted in the call.
