“Metro EMS ambulance, a Metro EMS rescue squad and a Metro EMS helicopter responded.<\/p>\n
“According to reports on arrival on-scene a man, believed to be aged in his 40’s and believed to be from Pretoria, was on the beach and was declared dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
“It is not known to NSRI who rescued the man from the water.<\/p>\n
“The man had reportedly been fly-fishing in shallow surf when he was swept out to sea by rip-currents and drowned.”<\/p>\n
NSRI remind vacationers to the coast that the full moon Spring Tide will last for another 5 to 6 days. The strongest rip-currents of the month prevail during Spring Tide which happens twice a month \u2013 at full moon and again at new moon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
