The Guam Fire Department's Search and Rescue unit launched a search in Yigo after emergency officials received a report of a drowning. Reportedly a group of military sailors were hiking and swimming the area when one of the men nearly drowned.

After confirming the situation, GFD told KUAM News that a Navy helicopter was deployed to the scene to assist the distressed swimmer.
