Newlywed bride killed in horror golf buggy accident while on vacation with husband – World News

Marina Morgan was thrown from an overturned golf buggy on Hamilton Island in Australia and tragically died at the scene just 10 days after her marriage to husband Robbie

A newly married bride died in a tragic golf buggy accident on her honeymoon.

Marina Morgan was in a golf buggy being driven by her new husband Robbie on Hamilton Island in Australia when the vehicle overturned as they attempted to do a U-turn.

Mr Morgan escaped unharmed but his wife, 29, tragically died at the scene, reports say.

A doctor, an off-duty dentist and an off-duty firefighter rushed to the couple’s aid after the accident on Whitsunday Boulevard.

Ms Morgan underwent CPR for 35 minutes but to no avail.

The couple, from the Strathfield area of ​​Sydney, had been married for just 10 days when Mrs Morgan died.

Queensland Police Inspector Anthony Cowan, speaking to the media, described the death as a “tragic accident” and said there was “no evidence of alcohol or dangerous driving”.

“It was just a tragic accident with a golf buggy,” he said in quotes quoted from the sun.

“There may have been some inexperience in driving these types of vehicles while turning rolled onto her side and the woman fell out and sustained life-threatening injuries.

“It just seems like inexperience driving this type of vehicle, spinning too fast and rolling onto its side and unfortunately that’s the result.

“It appears that no seat belt was worn at the time; We’ll get back to the Fatal Five, but now isn’t the time to think about what they should have done.”

Inspector Cowan added that when Robbie tried to do a U-turn the vehicle’s battery was low and he may have wanted to return to a charging station.

Graeme McIntyre, acting director of the Queensland Ambulance Service for Mackay District, added that Ms Morgan had been placed in a “sideways position to clear her airway” but was already in cardiac arrest when paramedics arrived.

Hamilton Island is a popular tourist destination off Queensland’s east coast and golf buggies are the primary mode of transportation.
