A 41-year-old skateboarder in New Zealand is dead after losing control on his “American style motorised skateboard”
Havelock Volunteer Fire Brigade chief fire officer Alan Stanford said the man had been skating down a hill on Mahakipawa ”He got into some dirt and flipped the skateboard. This flipped him on to the concrete and he hit the back of his head,” said Mr Stanford. . . ”It was pretty unreal really.”
Emergency crews tried to revive him but he was declared dead on the scene.
