Overview
- On Friday afternoon dozens of Acton police, fire and EMS vehicles converged on Nara Park and the park’s parking area was blocked off.
- Aerial video captured two medical helicopters landing in a nearby field and one person being wheeled on a stretcher into a helicopter before it departed for a hospital.
- Investigators taped off an area near the pond and remained on scene for hours while interviewing witnesses and lifeguards.
- The Middlesex District Attorney’s Office has opened an investigation into the incident and officials have not released the patient’s identity or condition.
- Nara Park is a popular public swimming spot, and the heavy emergency presence prompted local alarm and a temporary closure while authorities continue their inquiry.
