Oak Island Water Rescue conducts night time training exercises

OAK ISLAND, NC (WWAY) — The Oak Island Water Rescue is reminding people not all water rescues take place during the day.
The group took part in night time operations training last week with a scenario of two lost kayakers.
With darkness all around them, the group says they relied on their training and skills to navigate the waters of Oak Island.
Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and specialized gear, crews scanned the shoreline in pursuit of the kayakers, eventually locating them.
