At least 2 electrocuted in a Jacuzzi in Mexican resort

Tragedy struck a resort near Puerto Peñasco along the Gulf of California on Tuesday evening, as at least two people were reportedly electrocuted in a jacuzzi. Disturbing footage of the aftermath, which shows one person receiving CPR, has been circulating on social media.

The video captures a chaotic scene with a large crowd gathered around the hot tub. In the footage, one man is seen being pulled out of the jacuzzi by others, while another person lies flat on their back nearby. A bystander is performing chest compressions on the individual on the ground as onlookers scream and express their horror.

The man who was pulled from the jacuzzi appears to be in shock, initially standing on his own before walking away, visibly confused and flustered. The exact sequence of events remains unclear, but witnesses online claim that a surge of electricity ran through the tub, injuring those inside. The total number of people affected by the incident has not been confirmed.

TMZ obtained additional video showing ambulances arriving at the resort following the incident. However, it is currently unknown if anyone was transported to the hospital or what their current condition might be.

Authorities have yet to release an official statement detailing the circumstances or confirming the injuries sustained. The incident has raised concerns about safety protocols at the resort, prompting an ongoing investigation into what caused the apparent electrical surge.
