It was in the afternoon hours when the man was working on a cargo ship and began feeling unwell. The captain of the vessel he was on requested emergency assistance.
The emergency call was received by the Navy, through the Thirteenth Naval Zone, which received a distress call to evacuate a person experiencing symptoms of a heart attack.
A Defender vessel from Yucalpetén was quickly dispatched.
According to the report, the evacuation point was located about 8 nautical miles from the port of Progreso, so the rescue unit arrived almost immediately.
Upon arriving at the vessel, the Navy personnel provided first aid to the man and subsequently transferred him to the fiscal dock for better medical attention.
The man was identified as M.F.P., 50 years old, who stated that the symptoms he experienced were due to the high temperatures.
It is worth mentioning that a Mexican Red Cross ambulance was already waiting at the fiscal dock to transport the man to a hospital.
