Lifeguard truck hits beachgoer, sending victim to the hospital


Posted on Aug 31, 2009

A lifeguard truck struck a beachgoer on August 17, resulting in injuries that landed the victim in the hospital.  The accident happened in Virginia Beach near 35th Street around 5:45pm.

 

A lifeguard supervisor was driving a lifeguard truck when she accidentally struck the beachgoer.  This is the first time that the company providing lifeguard services to Virginia Beach, Lifesaving Service, has had an incident like this in their 79 year long history.

 

Before the injured beachgoer was transported to the hospital he received medical treatment from the lifeguard who caused the accident, as the lifeguard is also a paramedic.

 

The lifeguard supervisor has been working for Lifesaving Service for 10 years and is still employed there even after the accident.  The president of the company called the incident “an unfortunate accident”.

 

According to the Virginia Beach Police Department no police report was filed about the crash.  The president of Lifesaving Service wished the injured man a speedy recovery.
