One man has died in hospital and his brother is presumed dead following a dramatic Saturday evening in the waters near Bluffer’s Park beach.

Police said the marine unit was already in the area assisting in a separate investigation when they were called to help search for two missing men in the waters around the park’s beach.

Investigators said they eventually located one man in his 30s, who later died in the hospital.

The second man, who police said is 23-years-old, is still missing and is presumed to have drowned. The search for him was suspended on Saturday night but resumed Sunday morning.

The circumstances around how the two brothers found themselves in trouble in the water are not currently known. The incident remains under investigation, police said.
