A tragic incident occurred at a popular beach in Western Australia's south-west, where a man and a woman lost their lives due to drowning. The unfortunate event took place at Conspicuous Beach, near Walpole, at approximately 2:40 pm yesterday. The beach, known for its stunning views and calm waters, turned into a scene of chaos and despair as three swimmers got into trouble while swimming.
According to reports, the trio was among the many visitors enjoying the beach when they suddenly found themselves in distress. Thankfully, the authorities were notified, and a rescue operation was immediately launched. Despite their best efforts, the rescue team was only able to save one of the swimmers, a 42-year-old man, who was later taken to the hospital for treatment.
