A night out ended in tragedy in the port of Split: a drunken man floating in the sea clinging to a ship's chain

A 23-year-old Dutch man was rescued by police in Split after he ended up in the sea near the port, clinging to a ship's rope under the influence of alcohol. The incident occurred around 4:30 AM on Thursday when officers responded to a report of a man struggling in the water. Police found him floating and managed to pull him ashore with assistance from two colleagues. He was taken to KBC Split hospital for medical care. Due to lacking documents, his identity could not be confirmed initially, but it was later resolved when his friend called authorities seeking help. The police identified him as the missing Dutchman.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual account of a rescue operation without overt ideological framing. It focuses on the event itself, the actions of the police, and the resolution of the individual's identity. There is no evident political agenda or biased language, making the framing neutral.
