A woman has died in an accident while swimming late at night with her family in Darwin. The woman got in to trouble about 11.30pm on Thursday, before emergency services raced to the scene at Darwin Waterfront Precinct. The woman was swimming with her sisters and their partners out to an inflatable obstacle course in the middle of the swimming lagoon, police said. “When the group returned, noticed that one of the females was not present,” NT Police watch commander Karen Sanderson told the ABC.
“They swam back and located her face down in the water.” A security guard said he heard screams and swam to the group to help perform CPR until paramedics arrived. “So I came over and just rolled her into the recovery position, tried to clear out her airways, and then I just put her onto her back and just told everyone we’ll each take it in turns doing 30 seconds of CPR” guard Brendan Bayliss told the ABC. Paramedics swam out to the group, but the woman was declared dead at the scene.
