Fairfield PD: Male recovered from waters off Lighthouse Point pronounced dead
The Fairfield Police Department announced Saturday afternoon that a male recovered from the waters off Lighthouse Point and Penfield Reef was pronounced dead.
The department said the Fairfield County Regional Dispatch Center received a report shortly after noon of two people who were struggling in the water.
Several bystanders were able to rescue one person, but the male was not immediately located, which prompted a rescue attempt by the department and other agencies.
A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter found the missing male at about 3 p.m., according to the department.
The department recovered the male, transferred him to a marine unit which took him to the shore where he was pronounced dead.
The victims were not immediately identified.
