A Lake Worth Beach man drowned Sunday after being pulled from the water near the Boynton Inlet.
Palm Beach County Fire Rescue said Manalapan police received a 911 call about a beachgoer in distress due to rough surf and rip currents about 1/4 mile north of the non-lifeguard-protected area.
"Security officers and medics from a nearby estate rescued the male from rough surf and rip currents, administering CPR until Palm Beach County Fire Rescue arrived," according to the sheriff's news release. The swimmer was transported to Bethesda East Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:17 a.m.
The sheriff on Monday identified the deceased as Maximilian Sdowski, 34.
