Lido Azzurro: 20-year-old found unconscious in the sea: rescued by police
Parents raise alarm after the young man's message: officers find him unconscious a few meters from the shore
Timely intervention by the State Police averted a potential tragedy on the beach at Lido Azzurro , where a 20-year-old man was found in the sea and rescued after expressing his desire to take his own life. The alarm was raised around midnight, when the boy's parents contacted law enforcement, concerned about their son's disappearance. He had been away from home for hours after sending a phone message expressing his intention to end his life.
Searches in the dark on the beach and at sea
Flying Squad officers immediately responded to the Lido Azzurro beach and began a search despite the difficult weather conditions. In the darkness of the night, officers carefully searched the pine forest and the body of water in front of the beach, searching for any possible trace that might lead to the young man. During their operations, officers found some clothing belonging to the 20-year-old on the shoreline, which was immediately recognized by the parents who were present at the scene.
The discovery in the water and the rescue
The discovery of the clothes prompted the police to further intensify their search. Shortly thereafter, officers noticed a figure lying facedown in the sea, a few meters from the shore. Without hesitation, the officers abandoned their protective equipment and dove into the water to reach the young man. The boy was recovered unconscious and brought back to the beach by the officers.

Once on the shore, one of the officers managed to access the young man's airway, allowing him to expel the water he had swallowed through regurgitation and resume breathing. The 20-year-old was then entrusted to the care of medical personnel, who transported him to the emergency room of the SS. Annunziata Hospital for all necessary tests and treatment. This intervention once again highlighted the crucial role of prompt action and professionalism by emergency responders in life-threatening situations.
