A 10th person has died several days after a fire broke out at an assisted living facility in Fall River. Rip currents are responsible for the majority of surf-zone fatalities every year in the U.S. A former Major League Baseball player died Sunday while trying to save swimmers from a rip tide off the coast of South Carolina, authorities said.

River police said the officers who responded to the Gabriel House fire “exemplified professionalism, bravery, and selflessness in the face of danger.” The post Fall River fire: Newly released body cam footage shows officers’ response appeared first on Boston.
