Summary
A 38-year-old man and 40-year-old woman died Friday after strong currents pulled a group of swimmers out to sea off Bimini Island, Bahamas, police said.
Police said the pair had been swimming beyond posted warning signs about strong currents when they were swept away in waters near the island.
A nearby ferry rescued some swimmers, but the two Americans were unresponsive when brought aboard; CPR continued at a local clinic before both were pronounced dead shortly before 4 p.m.
Royal Bahamas Police said foul play is not suspected, though investigators are reviewing the circumstances and an autopsy will determine the exact cause of death.
