The first story comes from the San Jose Mercury News:
The boy was reported missing at 4 a.m. and had been at the beach, known by locals as Shark's Tooth Beach, having a barbecue with five others since 11 p.m., according to Kirk Lingenfelter, state parks superintendent. The beach-goers were drinking, and at some point in the early morning, two of them decided to swim out to the pinnacle in the cove. One returned, but the other did not and a 911 call was placed at about 4 a.m.
Now this article is full of information and details about the event, while a more household name, the San Francisco Chronicle wrote:
The boy, whose name wasn't released, was walking along Davenport Beach north of Santa Cruz about 4 a.m. with another teenage boy when he was swept into the ocean, the U.S. Coast Guard said.
The Coast Guard and local agencies are searching the area by helicopter and by boat.
