Multiple kayaking accidents have recently resulted in fatalities and critical injuries. In Milwaukee, an adult man died after falling into the water at South Shore Park despite rescue efforts by the Milwaukee Fire Department and dive teams. A 72-year-old man from Florence, South Carolina, died after his kayak capsized while riding a wave near Cape Hatteras National Seashore; bystanders attempted CPR but were unsuccessful. Another man in his 50s is in critical condition after capsizing on the Matawin River near Trois-Rivières and being rescued by fellow kayakers. These incidents highlight the importance of safety measures and preparedness in kayaking activities.
