A surfer in distress at 3417 SW Anchor Avenue, Lincoln City
6:02pm A surfer off 3417 SW Anchor Avenue in Lincoln City maybe in trouble. The surfer was out surfing until people on the beach noticed he wasn’t in sight anymore.
6:02pm Looks like the surfer has a friend along with him. Both appear to be in danger near Spanish Head.
6:10pm Lincoln City Police have eyes on the surfer. Rescue operation underway. The surfers are straight out from SW 35th. Heavy waves are giving the surfer(s) a bumpy ride. They’re just beyond the breakers – possibly trying to position themselves to get back onto the beach. They’re reported to be 200 yards out – two football fields offshore.
6:30pm Sounds like the rescue is just about complete.
