Sergeant Ross was on vacation with his kids looking for seashells along a beach in FL when he heard a swimmer yelling for help. With no lifeguards on duty, Ross grabbed his children’s floaties, strapped them around his waist, and swam out to the terrified man. With the assistance of a few local deputies, Ross was able to bring the struggling swimmer safely to shore.
