Man ***** after rescuing 2 kids from drowning in prohibited area of New Jersey river

MAYS LANDING, NJ – A man has ***** after authorities say he rescued two boys from drowning in a New Jersey river on Wednesday afternoon.

Officials say two boys, 8 and 12, went swimming in a prohibited spot of the river that runs through Weymouth Furnace in Hamilton Township.

It’s believed Pablo Hernando Cruz, 49, saw the boys struggling to swim and entered the river to rescue them.

Authorities say he managed to push the children to shore and then submerged under the water until he was pulled out by

Cruz, a Mays Landing resident, was pronounced ***** after being rushed to a nearby hospital.

The 12-year-old was treated and released from a local hospital, according to authorities, and the 8-year-old was taken to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

Atlantic County Executive Dennis Levinson extended his condolences to the Cruz family, and urged park visitors to “heed the warnings” about swimming in the river.

“The water is deep and can be dangerous for swimmers which is why we prohibit swimming,” Levinson said. “We don’t want any family to have to deal with this type of tragedy.”
