The body of a swimmer who went missing Wednesday afternoon off Miami Beach has been found Thursday morning.

Witnesses said he was swept up by the current along with other swimmers, one of which had to be pulled to safety and rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Horrified beachgoers watched Wednesday evening as rescuers searched for the missing 43-year-old man who was last seen wearing blue swim trunks.

The search resumed Thursday morning, and the man’s body was found.

Miami Beach police said the calls for help came Wednesday at 5:45 p.m.

They said it all started when a man entered the water to rescue a father and his 11-year-old daughter. The man who went in to help ended up going under as well.

“We were out here, and we were watching the water and we saw the guy go down, once, twice, and we saw the lifeguard trying to get closer to him,” said witness Janice Clark. “As he got closer, he went down again I didn’t see him anymore after that.”

He was eventually pulled out and rushed to Mount Sinai Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

“His stomach was enlarged from the water and his face was really dark and they were working on him,” said Clark.
