Three people were plunged into the sea after residents were warned to stay away from low-lying areas near the beaches.
Two people were rescued and a third swam to safety after a California pier under construction partially collapsed and fell into the ocean on Tuesday as the state’s central coast was pounded by heavy surf from a major storm, authorities said.
Lifeguards rescued two people from the water, officials with Santa Cruz Fire Department said. No one had serious injuries, Mayor Fred Keeley said. Some of the wharf’s pilings are still in the ocean and remain “serious, serious hazards” to boats, the mayor said. Each piling weighs hundreds of pounds and is being pushed by powerful waves.Governor Gavin Newsom’s has been briefed and the state’s Office of Emergency Services is coordinating with local officials, his office said.“We are anticipating that what is coming toward us is more serious than what was there this morning,” the mayor said.
