We were there Friday the 21st right in front of the bridge and the coast guard was out looking for what they thought was a lost swimmer. Was there really a missing person and did they find them? We had to leave Saturday and never heard the outcome.

I was staying in the 900 block ocean front as well and can confirm two Coast Guard Choppers running a search and rescue pattern at my location and up and down the coast line.

This is not confirmed... We were told that three swimmers were out in the water and two were observed coming back in. The "missing" was a 10 year old boy.

I will post back if I am able to confirm.

Mark, that is what we heard, but not an age.
I walked down to the area because we were staying right beside the Brunswickland Realty co. and talked to a lady who talked with the man who called it in. That day, there was no one down there saying someone was missing...no family missing anyone... They said they would search until dark. The next morning, no one was searching.
