It was 3:45 p.m. when the Finistère firefighters were alerted of a nautical accident by witnesses, in Fouesnant, this Sunday, September 29. A 58-year-old man was kite-surfing in the bay of La Forêt when he was thrown by a gust of wind against the facade of a house located on Avenue de la Pointe du Cap Coz, in Fouesnant.
A nurse who was walking nearby tried to resuscitate the victim, soon joined by two SNSM rescuers who were walking not far from the scene of the tragedy.
When help arrived, the SMUR doctor could only note the death of the kite-surfer, originally from Fouesnant.
