Dad dead, 5-year-old girl missing after wave pulls them into ocean in Monterey County
A 39-year-old father is dead and the search for a 5-year-old girl is ongoing after a large wave pulled them into the ocean in Monterey County, California, authorities said.
While the large-scale search for the girl has now ceased, California State Parks officials continue to search the shoreline, according to an update Sunday from the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office.
A 15-to-20-foot-high wave swept the little girl and her father into the Pacific Ocean just before 1 p.m. Friday near the Rocky Point Restaurant, the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office said.
The father was identified as Yuji Hu, of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the sheriff's office said.
When the mother tried to reach out to the girl and the father, the mother was also swept into the water, authorities said.
While the father held onto the 5-year-old, the mother made it back to shore, joining a 2-year-old who wasn't hurt, authorities said.
The father was rescued from the ocean and given CPR, authorities said. He was taken to a hospital where he was declared dead, according to the sheriff's office.
The mother was hospitalized in stable condition with mild hypothermia, the sheriff's office said.
A Coast Guard helicopter is a part of Saturday's search for the missing 5-year-old.
