An eight-year-old girl has tragically died in a maritime accident in the waters of the Mar Menor, in La Manga (San Javier), when the jet ski – on which she was riding with her father – collided with a boat.
The incident happened on Sunday afternoon, when the father fell into the sea and the girl managed to stay on the vehicle, which ended up colliding with another boat.
Immediately 112 received several calls reporting what had happened, and an ambulance and the San Javier Local Police were mobilised to the scene. The health workers tried to save the minor, but her condition was very critical and unfortunately she died as a result of the serious injuries received just over an hour after the accident.
