Felix Ellis, Minister for Police, Fire and Emergency Management
The fatal incident on Flinders Island last night is nothing short of a tragedy.
Our hearts go out to the deceased man's family and loved ones, the entire Flinders Island community and our emergency services.
This tragedy will no doubt have a profound impact on so many.
Investigations are underway into the circumstances.
Support is available to our emergency service and the community and I encourage those impacted to seek support.
