N.B. teen rescued after diving accident at local pool: ‘I just thank them for acting’
Global News
Family and friends are raising money to help the family of a Riverview, N.B., teen who suffered a serious spinal cord injury from a diving accident.
Like any other 16-year-old, Levi Sutherland was looking forward to getting his driver’s licence, but those plans are on hold after a devastating diving accident last week.
The Riverview, N.B., teen and his friends were celebrating the end of the school year at a local pool when something went terribly wrong.
“He had a diving accident, and his friends realized immediately that there was something wrong and were able to jump in and intervene,” said Levi’s uncle, Matt Sutherland.
“They’re heroes. And I know that’s a lot for some young guys to kind of take on. So it means a lot to us as a family, but they jumped in and they intervened and were able to pull him out.”
Matt says the actions of Chase Nagle, Elliot Arbuckle and Weston Baisley saved his young nephew.
“I’m actually a paramedic, so I was able to go and be on scene and kind of take part,” he said.
“I just thank them for acting, you know, I don’t know what training they have … they did the right thing.”
Levi is now recovering from a serious spinal cord injury and is being treated at the IWK children’s hospital in Halifax.
