TY - JOUR PY - 1984// TI - Deaths during recreational activity JO - Forensic science international A1 - Copeland, A. R. SP - 117 EP - 122 VL - 25 IS - 2 N2 - This study of recreational deaths in the "land of sun and fun" has pointed out several useful factors. Firstly, accidental deaths are more common than naturals. Secondly, the most common accidental death is drowning while swimming. The latter is not usually at public facilities, but rather at unsupervised uninstitutionalized surroundings. Finally, a younger population is involved with a frequent number of them with alcohol detected and/or drugs. LA - SN - 0379-0738 UR - http://dx.doi.org/ ID - ref1 ER -
