Richards Bay shipping accident leaves two injured
This afternoon Netcare 911 paramedics flew on board the Port Net helicopter to a vessel about seven miles out to sea off Richards Bay. Reports indicate that two sailors sustained severe burns after an explosion on a ship.
The Netcare 911 paramedics was hoisted down onto the deck of the vessel to stabilise the injured before hoisting them back up to the helicopter. The advanced life support paramedic worked fervently to stabilise the injured in flight to a Richards bay hospital before they were handed over to a specialised trauma team for further treatment.
