According to the Associated Press, two men have drowned off of the Alabama Gulf Coast while trying to save a child on Monday. Authorities say the child was caught in rough surf from the remnants of Hurricane Nate.

Captain Stephen Arnold of the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office says that the Coast Guard has found the body of 47-year-old Steven Wahler of Owensboro, Kentucky. Crews are still looking for 21-year-old Bradley Murphy of Elberta, Alabama.
