Peter Rosengren

Peter Rosengren died after helping rescue a boy from drowning, Miramar Beach, Florida, March 28, 2021. The boy, 9, struggled in the rough water of the Gulf of Mexico after being carried away from shore and into deeper water by a current. Among the adults in the boy’s party was a family friend, Rosengren, 42, newspaper executive, who was on the beach. At a time when the water was closed to the public, Rosengren left the beach and swam to the boy, whom he reached but was unable to tow to safety before they separated. Others, using flotation devices, brought the boy and then Rosengren, who was unresponsive, back to the beach. The boy recovered after being treated at a hospital for swallowing water. Attempts to revive Rosengren were unsuccessful, as he had drowned.
