A witness told WGMD that he saw someone raise his arms out of the ocean and realized the swimmer needed help.
“Then I started shouting ‘Help! We need a savior.’ We screamed, screamed, screamed and finally when I turned to this side. I can’t see him. He just raised his hand and he drowned,” said the witness.
Officials have warned of rip currents throughout the holiday weekend.
