Deaths In Acadia National Park;

 reported Oct. 7, 2008

A local skateboarder died from his injures here after taking a bad fall in Acadia national Park.  Corey O'Brian, age 23, of the village of Seal Harbor, somehow had lost control of his skateboard when he fell.    He could often be seen in and around Bar harbor on his skateboard.
A friend of Mr. O'Brain called 911 at about 7 p.m. on Sept. 30 to report the accident, and that Mr. O'brian had a gash on the back of his head, was unconscious and had been for several minutes.  Reports stated he was traveling at about 20 MPH when he fell backwards off his board, striking his head.  He did not appear to have been wearing a helmet at the time of the accident.
