Rock Fisherman Drowns At Bar Beach

BY IAN CROUCH

A report is being prepared for the Coroner after a rock fisherman drowned at Bar Beach.

The 70-year-old was walking on rocks at the northern end of the beach yesterday afternoon when he was swept into the sea by a wave.

A witness saw the man fall into the water and alerted the lifeguards.

They removed him  from the water but he couldn't be revived.
