DAVENPORT — Emergency responders retrieved the body of an unresponsive man from the ocean north of Davenport Beach over the weekend.
Witnesses called 911 shortly around 1:15 p.m. Saturday to report spotting what appeared to be a body in the water not far from a sea cave and remains of a pier. Santa Cruz County Supervisor Justin Cummings identified himself on his personal social media as the person who had discovered the body, describing the individual as an apparent middle-aged white adult man with brown hair. Cummings urged those who might know of a missing person to contact the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office.
