Santa Cruz Wharf partially collapses due to pacific storm
A part of the Santa Cruz Wharf in California collapsed during a high surf on Monday, sending three people into the water, authorities said. Two of them were rescued by lifeguards, and the third person swam to safety.
The public is being asked to stay away from the area. "You are risking your life, and those of the people that would need to try and save you by getting in or too close to the water," The National Weather Service's Bay Area posted on on X.
The US West Coast is bracing for more strong winds and storms this week.
