A woman cools off in the ocean sparkling in the sunlight in Redondo Beach, Calif., Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2022. Western states are struggling through one of the hottest and longest September heat waves on record. Temperatures began soaring last week and the National Weather Service warned that dangerous heat could continue through Friday, despite some slight moderation. A 52-year-old man from Utah was found dead after he was last seen paddling away from a beach in Puerto Rico.
According to a news release from the US Coast Guard, Kerbs was last seen alive by his wife paddling from Playa Escondida in Fajardo. "During search efforts Thursday afternoon, two male lifeguards who attempted to rescue Kerbs were soon overcome by dangerous sea state conditions and required rescue assistance," officials said.
“We extend our most heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of Ben Kerbs, may they find hope and strength during this most difficult time,” said Capt. José E. Díaz, commander of Coast Guard Sector San Juan.
