HONOLULU (KHON2) — Two men were rescued Wednesday from Kailua Beach after separate incidents involving kite surfers.
According to Ocean Safety officials, the first man was found on the shoreline near the Flagpoles area by beachgoers.
He is known to be a local kite surfer, and when found, he was not breathing. Good Samaritans performed CPR until Ocean Safety personnel arrived.
Approximately 90 minutes later, a second incident occurred when a 63-year-old kite surfer became unresponsive.
Lifeguards again used an AED, and the California visitor was transported to the hospital in critical condition.
Ocean safety personnel have not released the identities of either individual, and both remain under medical care.
