Rescue operation in Kressbronn: Surfers in difficulties, but not in distress!

On Sunday afternoon, a search and rescue operation for a supposedly in distress surfer was triggered in Kressbronn Bavaria (Nonnenhorn) on Sunday afternoon. The alarm came from an attentive citizen who had observed how a surfing had difficulty getting back on his board. This concerned notification led to a large -scale use of the emergency services.

The authorities reacted quickly and mobilized a variety of emergency services. Rescue workers were able to find a surfer east of the Nonnenhorn jetty. However, he made it clear that he saw no acute danger in his situation. "I had some problems, but I am not in distress and make my way to the bank," said the surf. The quick reaction of the units could thus be seen as a preventive measure.

extensive search for potential other emergencies

To ensure that no further emergencies occurred in the water, the apparently affected sea area was extensively searched. A search chain from different units was used. The German Lebens-Rettungs-Gesellschaft (DLRG), the Bavarian Wasserwacht, the fire brigade as well as customs and the water protection police were involved in the campaign. In addition, a police drone was used to support the visibility through the water.

Such operations are important in order to react quickly and efficiently in potential dangers. Although it turned out in this case that the situation of the surfer was unproblematic, it shows the vigilance of the citizens and the operational readiness of the rescue workers who pay attention to every message.

Overall, this joint action was a clear demonstration of the coordination and cooperation of the various rescue organizations that have to work closely together in emergencies. This ability to react quickly can be crucial to save people in actual dangerous situations and prevent worse things. In this way, the importance of public relations to raise awareness of the citizens for such emergencies remains.
