News | Marseille: a teenager found safe and sound at sea 5 hours after his disappearance

An important research device was triggered at the end of the afternoon in Marseille in the Corniche sector after the disappearance of a 15-year-old swimmer. Leaving to swim around 4 p.m., he did not return to the shore, arousing the concern of his relatives, who gave the alert.

For several hours, police, gendarmes and marine firefighters crisscrossed the coast, between Bonneveine beach and the cove of counterfeit money, supported by two helicopters. But as hopes dwindled after dark, around 9 p.m., the Navy aircraft spotted the teenager off shore. He was able to be fished out safe and sound, despite a slight hypothermia.
