An investigation is underway in Pacific Beach on Sunday morning after a man was found dead in the water.
Police were called to an area not far from the 100 block of Santa Rita Place around 2 a.m. after the victim was pulled from the water.Although first-responders attempted life-saving measures, the man, who was not awake or breathing when pulled out of the water, was pronounced dead at the scene at just after 3 a.m.
Video shot at the scene shows a group of people, most of whom appear to be men, near the paramedics as they worked on the victim. Several people were clearly distraught, with others comforting them.As Troy Escoffier, an EMT and veteran surfer told NBC 7 on Sunday, being in any body of water at night isn't safe.
"Rip currents, you're not — you can't see when you're going out, especially at night," Escoffier said, adding,"you just don't expect anything bad to happen to you, and then all of a sudden: Boom, it can happen."A reminder to San Diegans and visitors to America's Finest City: San Diego lifeguards are on duty from 9 in the morning to dusk.
