A scuba diver has been rushed to hospital after being pulled from the water at a popular swimming spot in Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
A woman – believed to be in her thirties, was rescued from the water at Shelly Beach in Manly on Wednesday morning after “getting into a bit of trouble” while scuba diving.
Video footage taken at the snorkeling hotspot shows multiple NSW ambulance paramedics carrying the woman across the shore on a stretcher, as a crowd of swimmers gather around her and watch on.
NSW Police confirmed emergency services were called to the popular beach at around 10:25am following reports the scuba driver required urgent help.
Ambulance crews arrived at the scene shortly after and assessed the woman before transporting her to Northern Beaches Hospital.
More to come.
