A 6-year-old child and four adults plunged into rough ocean waters when the boat they were in capsized off the Northern California coast over the weekend, according to the Sonoma County Sheriff\u2019s Office. <\/p>\n

The Oct. 18 incident occurred near Tomales Point in the North Bay, KTLA\u2019s sister-station KRON reported<\/a>. <\/p>\n

First responders were alerted to the overturned boat just before noon and dispatched a rescue helicopter crew that spotted several victims in the water near the mouth of Tomales Bay. <\/p>\n

Boaters nearby who heard about the incident launched from Lawson\u2019s Landing and were able to pull three of the people, including a 6-year-old child, from the frigid waters, while rescuers pulled two others who had managed to swim to a remote cover. Both were suffering from cold water exposure, Sonoma County Sheriff\u2019s officials said in a post on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n
