A drama of Serbian tourists on Brac: Croatian minister saved them from certain death (VIDEO)
Croatia was struck by storm on Tuesday, and two Serbian citizens were at the stormy seas near Milna on Brac, and Croatian Minister for Labor Marko Pavic helped in their rescue, reports 24sata.hr.
Tihomir and Violet Prosevski, father and daughter from Belgrade, were rescuing a ship and they ended up in the sea. They couldn't climb up and they almost crashed on the sharp rocks. Minister of Labor and another local helped them.
THEY FOUGHT THE STORM FOR HALF AN HOUR
Tihomir Prosevski and his daughter Violeta fought the storm for 30 minutes while they tried to anchor the boat, but their anchor was too weak to hold the ship which was exposed to the waves and to the hits of the wind, and the rope that was holding the anchor suddenly got stuck into the motor propeller and the ship lost power. Prosevski jumped off of the ship to untangle the rope, and his daughter jumped after him in fear. Struck by panic, because they were in the sea in the middle of the storm, they forgot to lower the ladders and they couldn't climb back up to the ship.
Minister of Labor of Croatia Marko Pavic, who was nearby, was the first one who came to rescue, seeing that there are people in the sea who are trying to save their boat near sharp rocks, and then another local from the other side of the bay came to help.
Fighting the stormy wind, with joint forces, they managed to take them to the shore, and the ship to the gravel beach.
