Multiple search and rescue teams are working together to find a 5-year-old girl who was swept out into the ocean on Friday.<\/p>\n
The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office, California State Parks, Cal Fire, and the U.S. Coast Guard have resumed search efforts for a 5-year-old girl who was swept into the ocean by a large wave on Friday.<\/p>\n
The incident occurred at Garrapata State Beach along Highway 1, just north of the Rocky Point Restaurant.<\/p>\n
An off-duty State Parks Peace Officer and lifeguard discovered a family in distress near the waterline. <\/p>\n
The father attempted to rescue his daughter from waves estimated to be 15 to 20 feet high when both were pulled into the ocean. <\/p>\n
The mother, who tried to reach them, was also swept into the water but managed to return to shore. <\/p>\n
The officer successfully pulled the father from the water and administered CPR. <\/p>\n
Both parents were transported to a local hospital, where the father was pronounced dead. <\/p>\n
The mother is in stable condition with mild hypothermia.<\/p>\n
The missing child was last seen wearing a white shirt, not a red one as previously reported.<\/p>\n
