Venice urged to establish full time dive rescue unit
A car plunged into the Intracoastal Waterway near Venice Avenue bridge last week, highlighting Venice Florida's lack of certified full time dive rescuers. The Venice Fire Department arrived with a rescue truck but no diving gear, forcing improvised attempts with air tanks and masks. Experts say proper scuba equipment could mean life or death, and suggest attaching a qualified diving team to the city rescue unit rather than relying on volunteers.
