Late night swim goes horribly wrong - Emily

Late night swim goes horribly wrong


Last night at 10:00pm local boy David Rockwell was washed out to sea by asmall tsunami at Waitara beach.


Since then there has been no sign of the 17 year old boy, luckily there were three friends with him when the incident occurred. They explained “we had just came from a party and decided to have a swim to cool off, we came out but he stayed in after a couple of minutes this huge wave formed and swept him out to sea.”


Coast guards have been frantically searching for Davids body, locals have been fearing the worst and Davids family claimed
“We will not give up until we find David.”
But as the search grow and time passes by the chances of finding David seem slim and Davids family are considering calling off the search, locals are grieving overthis loss and hope nothing like this will happen again.
